„Spring Crocus in the Alps during snow melt“
Spring Crocus (Crocus vernus) in the austrian alps in the Eng valley
The Eng valley is the most famous of all valleys in karwendel mountain range
Next to the sheer rock faces of the karwendel mountains the sycamore maple forest Grosser Ahornboden and the alp village of Eng are the main attractions
More than 2000 sycamore trees (Acer pseudoplatanus) are spread in the alp meadow, sometimes more than 600 years old
To preserve this listed natural monument a monitored replanting is constantley going on
The Karwendel limestone mountain range is the largest range in the eastern alps
Large parts of the Karwendel are protected and a popular destination for tourists, hikers and climbers
