The first nature park in South Tyrol

Discover the beauty of the landscape around the Schlern and the Rosengarten massif

The Schlern-Rosengarten Nature Park was founded in 1974, making it the oldest nature park in South Tyrol. Covering an area of over 7,291 hectares, the nature park in the western Dolomites provides insight into a fascinating habitat with scenic beauty, geomorphological and geological significance and unique flora and fauna with around 790 flowers and fern plants. The Schlern massif, with the rocky tower of the Santner and the Euringer, is the emblem mountain of South Tyrol. The Schlern, together with the Rosengarten massif with its countless towers, are famed far beyond the borders of the Dolomites. And on the legendary mountain of the Rosengarten, the “Enrosadira” can be seen in all its majesty at sunset, when the Dolomites glow pink under the rays of the evening sun. Since 2009, the Dolomites, including the Schlern-Rosengarten Nature Park, are part of the UNESCO World Heritage
