The Bearded Vulture Learns to Fly in Trafoi - Animal watching
The bearded vulture has its breeding ground in specific parts of the Stelvio National Park. If breeding takes place again this year, a young bird can be observed from a respectful distance as part of a guided hike with partner hiking guides from the national park. Find out more about this ecologically valuable bird and the Alpine-wide reintroduction project.
