Schweizerischer Nationalpark - Resettlement. Since 1986 bearded vultures have been released in the Alps as part of an international project.
In the National Park, the firs birds were released in 1991. The release of these birds should enable the gap between the Pyrenees and the Balkans to be closed. Other sites where birds have been released are Rauristal (Austria), Haute Savoy and the Mercantour National Park (France), as well as, since 2000, the Marteltal in the Stelvio National Park (Italy).
The walk leads us through an interesting section of the Pass dal Fuorn forests and the wonderfully varied flora of the Park’s alpine meadows. The nature trail provides detailed information along the way, in 5 languages.
This well-frequented route has become increasingly popular since bearded vultures were released here between 1991 and 2007.
The walk over Fuorcla Val dal Botsch leads from the Pass dal Fuorn region to Val Mingèr, via a 2676 m high pass. It is normally passable from end of June to end of September.
