Immerse yourself in the eventful history of our local mountain!
On this exciting and leisurely hike on the Rosstratte, we embark on a journey through millions of years of geological history. How was the Dobratsch formed? Why do we find ancient marine fossils here? And what does the term "solifluction" actually mean?
Together with an expert guide, we explore geological features and learn why the landscape around the Dobratsch is so unique. We also take a look at the distribution of plant life: why do only certain species grow at certain altitudes - and what does this tell us about the soil, climate and rock?
Whether dolomite, shell limestone or lively alpine flora - if you keep your eyes open, you will discover the traces of an ancient natural history at every turn.
