Congratulations! You've been accepted to the Winter Session of the Wizards Academy! It's winter break at the Wizards Academy. Most students have gone home, but not you. You and your fellow young wizards stay behind, with the hallowed halls and frosty forest grounds all to yourselves. New adventures, hidden legends, and winter mysteries await those curious enough to seek them.
Trackers Holiday Camp
Wizards Academy - Winter Break: Spells, Wands & Cocoa
At the Academy, magic is a skill you earn. Your training is real: discover the true names of winter plants and mushrooms, read animal tracks in the frost, and brew warming drinks over a fire you helped craft. Our expert Trackers Guides weave these outdoor skills into every quest, so the story is imaginary but what you learn is yours to keep.
Choose Your Winter Adventure
Each camp offers its own quest in the Wizards Academy saga, matched to your camper's age. Choose your camp, choose your adventure:
School of Magic: Mushrooms, Elves & Faeries… Oh My! King and Queen Bolete invite you to the Mushroom Kingdom's Winter Festival! Travel the Magical Mycelium Network with elf and faerie friends to warm the frosty forest.
School of Magic: Mushrooms, Magic & Potions Something is putting the Mushroom Kingdom into too deep a sleep, and King and Queen Bolete need your help. Brew the waking potion and discover who (or what) is behind it.
Wizards Academy: Mushrooms, Magic & Main Events Deep underground, the SPORE RUMBLE awaits! Face the Spore Court's champions in a Wizard's duel tag match. Earn their secrets to restore the Mycelium Network. Get ready to rumble!
School of Magic: Winter Goblin Village Quest The goofball Goblin Gang needs your help! Their village isn't ready for the longest night of the year. Craft, trade, and play to make sure every goblin is warm when night arrives.
School of Magic: Wish of the Winter Goblin A young goblin has bartered away a wish that could change winter forever. Trade riddles with the Goblin Market's strange merchants, follow the wish from stall to stall, and decide if it should come true.
Wizards Academy: Winter Goblin Mischief You've been summoned to Goblin Village, where every trade hides a trick and someone is stealing winter itself. Outwit the market's cleverest hagglers and follow the arcane clues before the last snow disappears.
Your Academy Training
Every quest doubles as real outdoor training. By week's end, young wizards can:
- Craft a wand, spellbook, and enchanted gear with real carving and craft skills
- Identify winter mushrooms and plants of the frosty forest, the true magical botany
- Track the creatures of the Realms by reading real prints, trails, and signs
- Brew potions and warm cocoa by the fire while learning true hearth skills
- Decipher runes, solve riddles, and duel with foam wands
- Quest as a team, where cooperation and quick thinking are the strongest magic
