The Wild Alps
Unique National Parks, Nature Reserves, and Biosphere Reserves
Mehr zum Buch
This large-format photography collection showcases the flora, fauna, and pristine landscapes of the Alps’ protected regions. Capturing the allure of this grand legacy from the ice age, the book offers up-close natural experiences across parks and preserves in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, Italy, and France. From the snowy heights of Mont Blanc to the wildflower fields of Italy's Tre Cime and the lakes of Austria's Tyrol region, hundreds of color images reveal the Alps in their wild, unfettered state. Accompanied by species identification, geological history, and trip planning resources, the book is both inspirational and informative. It includes tips on the best hiking, skiing, and climbing spots, featuring over 750 images with little to no traces of human settlement. The beautiful, painterly photos capture the region’s majestic landscapes during magic hour and across seasons. Highlights include more than ten UNESCO-designated Biosphere Reserves and Parks, as well as several UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The collection features hundreds of plant and animal species, including underwater photography from pristine lakes and streams, covering everything from treetops to picturesque waterfalls and plains. This is a definitive photographic escape into the wilds of the Alps.
