Endemics

The high number of endemic plants, i.e. plant species that occur in one region of the world exclusively, is a special trait of the North-eastern Limestone Alps. The callianthemum anemonoidese is one of these endemic plants. If you want to spot the callianthemum anemonoidese flower, make sure you plan your trip in early spring. It blossoms before its leaves are fully developed and prefers fresh, rocky meadows, gravel fields on lower slopes close to streams and sparse forests. You can discover them when hiking through the Spitzenbach Gorge.
