speciAlps2
[Project completed] More and more people are seeking recreation and balance in the natural surroundings of the Alps.

This puts increasing pressure on animals and plants, but also on destinations with their infrastructure and inhabitants. It is essential for visitors to be guided: the speciAlps2 project raised awareness of the protection of nature and landscape in the Alps and developed measures to guide visitors.
