Summary
On this 8-day holiday we will enjoy excursions from our first-class vegan hotel to lonely Alpine pastures, sun-lit meadows and other wonderful habitats in search of such sought-after plants as Lesser Butterfly Orchid, One-flowered Wintergreen and Edelweiss, plus butterflies including Damon Blue, Phoebus Apollo and Titania's Fritillary. Backed by the region’s spectacular landscapes, we will also be hoping to see Alpine Marmot and Alpine Ibex, soaring Lammergeier and a variety of other birds such as Nutcracker and Black Woodpecker. Pools of tumbling streams provide habitat for Yellow-bellied Toad and the surroundings of crystal-clear lakes are perfect for Fire Salamander. Adder are possible too.
