You are in the middle of the Karwendel Alpine Park. It has existed since 1928 and is one of the oldest nature reserves in Europe. Exploring him means seeing some beautiful highlights like the Großer Ahornboden, the Hafelekar or the Mondscheinspitze. After all, it covers an impressive 727 square kilometers.

The Karwendel Mountains are characterised by their wild, sublime beauty, with rocky hillsides, vast forests and lush alpine meadows.

Alpenpark Karwendel has been subject to a preservation order since 1928 and is one of Europe’s oldest nature reserves. Spread over 727 square metres, it comprises of eleven landscape conservation areas ranging from high mountain peaks to fenlands. The primordial vegetation has remained intact and many rare animal and plant species have found an alpine version of “Noah’s Ark” here. Golden eagles, ibex, sandpipers, the German tamarisk (lowland forest plant), as well as wild orchids and ancient sycamore maple trees still flourish abundantly in this region. The birdlife is equally fascinating. During guided hikes you will discover, for example, the three-toed woodpecker, owls and woodcock.
