Ancient cultures and new perspectives
Above the Schlern/Sciliar dolomite we firstly find the somewhat reddish limestones, dolomites, marls and sandstones of the
so-called”Schlern/Sciliar plateau strata”. These are deposits left
by an ancient lagoon of the upper Schlern/Sciliar reef covering
a≈large area of the Schlern/Sciliar plateau. On top of this follow
individual outcroppings of black clayey sediments that are
­attributable to Raibl strata.
A final layer of Mesozoic deposits (from the Mesozoic period)
of the Main Dolomite, in contrast to the other strata, has almost
entirely eroded away. This nearly white, horizontally articulated
rock forms, among others, Monte Pez (2,563 meters) and the
Kranzer/Cranzes (2,465 meters).
volcanic tuff and lava are easily eroded, the nearby meadows and
fields are extremely fertile. Additionally, the Wengen and Cassian
strata have a high clay content and are thus able to store large
amounts of water. This has resulted in making the Seiser Alm/Alpe
di Siusi meadow particularly rich in springs, streams and bogs.
The topography of the Schlern/Sciliar region has been defined
by its geological formations. The Schlern/Sciliar Dolomite that
bears its name is a reefstone made up of the algae and corals
incoporated into the rock faces and many crevices and chimneys
found in the Western Dolomites. On the slopes of the Rosszähne/
Denti di Terrarossa one can find – as perhaps in no other place in
the Dolomites – traces of volcanic activity in the reef area. The
calcareous strata, named after the Tschapit-Alm/Alpe di Ciapit
meadow and blocks (“Cipit blocks”) are outcroppings of the reefs
that sheared off and fell into the deep ocean basins. In addition to
the debris left by the marine reefs, volcanic material was also
transported here by waterways. These sediments are rich in fossils
and make up the Pachycardia tuff (named after the Pachycardia
mollusk).
The undersea volcanic activity and the contact metamorphism
phenomena (transformation of the neighboring rock by rising
magma) have produced many minerals in the Seiser Alm/Alpe di
Siusi region, such as the Frommerlahn/Rio Fromm analcime and
the apophyllite and natrolite of the Lafreider cave that are found
in many important collections.
The Schlern/Sciliar mountain is one of the landmarks of South
Tyrol. Pristine valleys and gorges and the Schlern/Sciliar plateau
that were already familiar to man in prehistoric times, and the
nearby Seiser Alm/Alpe di Siusi, are the characteristic features of
this area. In the year 2003, the Rosengarten/Catinaccio area was
added to the Nature Park.
Geology
Few other areas of the Dolomites display the story of their
formation as readily as the Schlern/Sciliar region.
These varied landscapes are the result of rock-forming reefs
and massive volcanic eruptions beneath the surface of the Tethys
Sea. Geological enthusiasts are encouraged to explore this area,
and some areas that are particularly recommended include the
trail to Bad Ratzes/Bagni di Razzes in Seis/Siusi, along the
Frötschbach/Rio Freddo to the Prossliner Schwaige/Malga
Prossliner (1,742 meters), the tourist trail from the Seiser Alm/Alpe
di Siusi meadow to the slopes of the Rosszähne/Denti di Terra­
rossa, or a hike over on the Schlern/Sciliar plateau (and to the
Schlernhaus/Rifugio Bolzano – 2,457 meters).
The first altitudinal belt (from Eisacktal/Valle Isarco to upland
plateau of Völs/Fiè, Seis/Siusi and Kastelruth/Castelrotto) is mostly
made up of the dark red rocks of the Bolzano quarz-porphyry
strata. Above these lies a strata of Grödner/Gardena sandstone,
whose iron content gives the soil a bright-red appearance. After
this, one finds the Permian strata (Bellerophon strata), which dates
back approximately 256 to 252 million years and the Lower
Triassic (Werfen strata) from about 252 to 248 million years ago.
On the Seiser Alm/Alpe di Siusi meadow the Wengen and
Cassian strata are found at their greatest area of extension. Since

Ripartizione Natura, paesaggio e sviluppo del territorio
More humid areas with deeper soils provide an ideal location
for spruce formations, both in the montane and the subalpine
vegetation zones. These formations become increasingly sparse as
the altitude rises. This change also causes the undergrowth to
inversely increase in density. Typical species found here include the
hairy alpenrose, cranberry and blueberry. These forest formations
contain quite a large amount of dead wood and are thus ideal
places for various species of woodpeckers: the gray-headed
woodpecker, which, in addition to xylophagous – that is wood-­
eating – insects, also feeds on ants that it finds on the ground in
the forest, the great spotted woodpecker, which is characterized
by its distinctive black-white-red colored feathers, and the rather
rare three-toed woodpecker, which – as its name suggests – in
contrast to the other species of woodpeckers only has three toes
instead of four.
In addition to the forest formations, the Nature Park also holds
remarkable and impressively steep rock walls, whose crevices are
home to rare and colorful flower species, such as the Dolomite
bellflower and the small flower columbine. The crevice are also the
nesting sites of birds such as the Kestrel, which flies over the alpine
grassland in search of insects, small reptiles and mice, and the
Alpine swift, noted for its agile and impressively quick flight.
The Seiser Alm/Alpe di Siusi meadow is renowned for its rich
flora. This largest plateau in Europe comprises the southernmost
section of the Nature Park. The rich biodiversity present here has
already begun to feel the effects of increased tourism and intensive
agricultural use (fertilization and drainage) in some places, though
the more remote areas of the Seiser Alm/Alpe di Siusi and other
areas of the Nature Park still exhibit this diversity. In the spring,
flowers like the Alpine snowbell, anemones, crocuses, gentians,
orchids, daphne and primroses bloom here. Birds that nest in these
habitats include the melodious skylark and the ground-breeding
whinchat. Their communities are, however, beginning to suffer
from the effects of intensive agriculture activities. The birds are
being displaced due to the fertilization that allows the meadows to
be grazed earlier than in the past, thereby not allowing the birds
sufficient time to raise their young.
The flora of the Schlern/Sciliar high plateau is equally impressive,
with the pink blooms of the Dolomite Cinquefoil that cover the
limestone rocks, the edelweiss that grows among the crevices, the
blue-green saxifrage and paederota bonarota. Here and there over
the alpine grassland limestone one can see black redstarts and, with
a little luck, one can even catch a glimpse of an ermine. This small
predator feeds mostly on small rodents, which he even goes into
their underground burrows to catch. The ermine has brown fur in
summer which turns white in winter, except for his black tail. Alpine
choughs and chaffinches are more common sights than slinky
ermine. During rests from long walks around the alpine shelters like
the Schlernhaus/Rifugio Roma, one can often see flocks of these
birds hovering about in search of food left behind by hikers.

The Human Factor
The sub-Alpine region west of the Schlern/Sciliar mountain,
which includes the villages of Völs/Fiè, Seis/Siusi, and Kastelruth/
Castelrotto has many prehistoric settlements. The most valuable
find in the area is the “Sword of Hauenstein”, which was found at the
foot of Schlern/Sciliar in the Nature Park area. It dates to the Bronze
Age and is preserved in the city museum in Bozen/Bolzano.
The Schlern/Sciliar plateau was already explored by man in
prehistoric times. This is attested to by finds of pottery on Burgstall/
Monte Castello and on the slopes of the Roterdspitze/Denti di Terrarossa. Experts say that the Schlern/Sciliar plateau was home to
places of worship and also used for pasturing. These early ages also
likely saw the origin of ancient Ladin legends.
The rugged rock fortress of Hauenstein/Castelvecchio, whose
ruins rise above Seis/Siusi atop a massive boulder, was once the
home of the late-medieval minstrel Oswald von Wolkenstein. It is
believed that the rock upon which the castle sits broke off from the
north wall of the Santnerspitze/Cima Santner (2,414 meters) and fell
into the forest. Hauenstein/Castelvewcchio is easily accessible by
peaceful forest trails from Völs/Fiè, Seis/Siusi, or from Bad Ratzes/
Bagni di Ratzes.

Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage Site
In summer 2009, due to their scenic beauty and their geo­
morphological and geological significance, the Dolomites
were added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
This carefully chosen list of sites includes the most outstanding
and unique natural or cultural assets, whose protection is
particularly important for the international community.
The Dolomites and with them also the Schlern-Rosengarten/
Sciliar-Catinaccio Nature Park have thus been awarded
the greatest recognition a natural asset may receive. Such
recognition, however, also confers certain duties and
­responsibilities relating to the conservation and sustainable
development of this extraordinary mountain region.

The Dolomites
columbine is found
even at the highest
elevations of the Park
area.
Seen from the Bozen/Bolzano basin or from the Ritten/Renon
plateau, the mighty cliffs of the Schlern/Sciliar tower impressively
over the extensive high plateau, the foreboding peaks of Euringer
and Santner give it an inaccessible appearance. It is, however,
home to many varied habitats and a rich botanical diversity.
Compared to other areas in the Dolomites, the Schlern-­Rosen­
garten/­Sciliar-Catinaccio Nature Park contains an extremely
abundant wealth of plant species. This is due to the diversity of
soils and the fact that this is the place where the eastern and
western alpine plant species distribution limits overlap.
An upward ascent leads one through vast forest belts, which
from the border of the Nature Park slightly above the villages,
extend directly up to the foot of the cliffs. The forests along the
southwestern border of the Nature Park are mainly mountain pine
varieties, whereas other areas are predominantly inhabited by
montane and subalpine fir formations. The pine forests grow on
barren, shallow, and often shifting ground surfaces. As other tree
species find it difficult to grow in these locations, the pine forests
here perform important functions: they stabilize the ground,
protecting it from erosion and promoting the formation of humus.
Typical undergrowth here includes heather, juniper, amelanchier
and particularly striking flower types, such as the dark columbine,
the lady’s slipper, common goldenrod and the striated daphne.
The pine forests provide a habitat for abundant animal life. Attentive observers of the tree bark will be able to glimpse an extraordinary species of beetle – the Timberman beetle from longhorn
family of beetles. The branches of the tree tops here also hold the
white silk cocoons of the eastern pine processionary moth. The
caterpillars of this nocturnal butterfly species cause immense
damage to the woods through their feeding. But a chance meeting with these caterpillars may hold another unpleasant consequence for people, because the poisonous caterpillar hairs can
cause serious allergic reactions. Typical bird species found in the
pine forests include the crested tit with its characteristic bonnet,
and the nightjar, a nocturnal species of ground-nesting birds, with
exceptionally well-camouflaged plumage.

The outline of the Schlern/Sciliar with the Santner and Euringer peaks is one of the landmarks of South Tyrol. Here, where
the Schlern/Sciliar “shines like a lighted Grail castle in the nether
depths of the Eisack/Isarco gorge”(J. Rampold), the Dolomites
push furthest to the west – and as the mighty Prince among the
mountains, the Schlern/Sciliar rests atop a pedestal of many steps.
The basement of this mighty mountain lies at an average of a
thousand meters above sea level, and includes Kastelruth/Castelrotto, Seis/Siusi, Völs/Fiè and Tiers/Tires.
About a thousand meters above this, the Seiser Alm/Alpe di
Siusi meadow stretches out on its northern slope like a green
wavy cushion, atop which, another five hundred meters higher,
rests the Schlern/Sciliar plateau. The mountain forests around
Tiers/Tires, Völs/Fiè and Seis/Siusi and the Tschamin/Valle di
Ciamin valley are also part of the Natural Park.
As a starting point for tours of the Schlern/Sciliar region, the
villages of Kastelruth/Castelrotto, Seis/Siusi, Völs/Fiè and Tiers/
Tures are ideal. There are roads which lead to St Ulrich/Ortisei
down in the Gröden/Val Gardena valley, and into the Eisacktal/
Valle Isarco valley towards Blumau/Prato Isarco and Waidbruck/
Ponte Gardena. The Seiser Alm/Alpe di Siusi meadow may be
reached by bus or from Seis/Siusi by cable car. The road to the
Seiser Alm/Alpe di Siusi meadow may only be used by private
transport methods at certain times. The Schlern/Sciliar plateau
may be reached from Compatsch/Compaccio or from Tiers/Tires
and the Tschamin/Valle di Ciamin valley.
Brenner - Brennero
The Schern-Rosengarten/Sciliar-Catinaccio Nature Park was
established in 1974 and expanded in 2003. It covers 7,291 hectares. The Nature Park forms a single natural land unit with the
protected area of the Seiser Alm/Alpe di Siusi meadow. The Seiser
Alm/Alpe di Siusi meadow has been an important place for alpine
farming and transhumance since ancient times. Today it is also a
favorite spot for many holidaymakers and tourists.

South Tyrol Nature Parks
Nature parks are of particular importance for the preservation
of nature and landscapes, education and research, and providing
an opportunity to experience nature. The concept is based on a
few clear principles:
1. South Tyrol Nature Parks protect and preserve the diversity of
the mountains with their habitats, plants and animals.
2. Information, environmental education and a special nature
experience offer visitors a new understanding of nature and
promote good governance.
3. The Nature Parks comprise mountains, pastures and forests;
permanent settlements are not part of the area.
4. Forest and alpine farming and transhumance are PONTIVES
maintained
