Triesenberg Animal Park 6 (Liechtenstein)

Weather…

In Triesenberg, the animal habitat is shaped by the extreme altitude and the alpine mountain landscape. The vast alpine pastures and rugged rock formations provide a habitat for specialized high-mountain species such as ibex, chamois, and marmots. Especially in the winter months, the lower-lying mountain forests serve as important retreats for wildlife. In cooperation with the hunting community, the municipality has established quiet zones to protect the animals from disturbances caused by winter tourism. In the areas around Steg and Malbun, rare alpine animals such as the mountain hare and the black grouse can also be found. The management of the alpine pastures is carried out using traditional methods, which ensures the preservation of species-rich mountain meadows. For hikers, the habitat is a place of silence and direct nature experience, characterized by the raw beauty of the Liechtenstein Alps.
