The Plot
Wintrane Academy, like most wizarding schools, is located in the middle of nowhere to keep away from prying muggle eyes. No exact location of the school can be given; just that it is in Hawaii, hidden somewhere on a large island. The only way to access the school is by boat. Older students may be able to arrive by apparation, but even at that they will appear several kilometers from the school, as there is a charm placed on the school that permits anyone to apparate inside it's grounds.

The school itself is a breathtaking sight. It is built on a hill and is therefore elevated, making it appear even more massive than it already is. The island is surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, which can get boring when visisted to much, but stunning nontheless. To the north of the school, a massive boreal forest looms. This forest extremely treachcerous-home to werewolves, bears and other dangerous creatures. It is therefore off limits to all students and teachers.

The Quidditch pitch is located behind the school. To the far west is the cemetary, which is haunted by many dangerous ghosts and ghouls. This area is also off limits. A memorial is placed near the entrance doors, which is located on it's eastern side, facing the ocean.

Wintrane has an enchantment placed on it that never allows the temperature on school grounds to rise above 100 degrees Fahrenheit, even in the winter. However, outside school grounds, the weather can get hot, and students are advised to bring summer clothing for winter wear.
