Flying Gems - Butterflies

Butterflies and their habitats in the Kalkalpen National Park
Over 1,600 butterfly species flutter in the Kalkalpen National Park, nowhere else in Austria have more species been recorded. The butterflies love the flower-rich habitats and the sparse, near-natural forests. If the butterflies are rarely seen in cold and damp weather, we will focus on their habitat requirements and nectar plants on the tour.

Prerequisites: The guided tours on the fixed dates are reserved for private individuals. Groups of 10 or more people, companies, schools or other organizations are requested to contact the respective visitor center.
