Vorderkaiserfelden — an alpine garden on a rocky slope

Rock, slope and patches of shade shape the little garden at Vorderkaiserfelden. Its beds bring plants from different parts of the Alps together in a mountain setting.

Aus der Quelle

The Vorderkaiserfelden alpine garden was established in 1930 beside the mountain hut of the same name in the Zahmer Kaiser. The Alpine Club describes a collection of plants from the Kaiser range and other parts of the Alps. The garden occupies rocky ground on a mountainside in the Kaisergebirge nature reserve.

Redaktionelle Einordnung

Look at where plants sit in relation to the rocks, the open slope and the edge of the woodland. The Alpine Club’s garden guide describes plants from different elevation belts. Seeing them close together makes it easier to compare their forms and the conditions they grow in.

Empfehlung

Check the Alpine Club’s latest notices about garden access, hut works and any path diversion before setting out. Use the marked mountain paths and leave plants in place. Check conditions and services separately for the hut.
