- Description

The Trauneralm, dating from the time of the Pfandelscharten crossing to the Großglockner, is surrounded by 15 three thousand metre peaks and by a variety of alpine flora and orchids in the Rotmoos in the Käfertal valley, which will delight you not only with unspoilt nature, a magnificent panorama and thunderous waterfalls. The Rotmoos Valley with its swamp meadows is one of the unique floras in Europe and opens up one of the most beautiful and impressive valleys in the Alps. At an altitude of over 1,100 m above sea level, more than 300 species of beetles, almost 200 of large butterflies and a multitude of wild animals live here.
