This picture was taken during an excursion to the Nationalpark Berchtesgaden – only one of two national parks in the state of Bavaria, which makes up about 1/5th of Germany. We had a tour from one of the park rangers and visited the information centre “Haus der Berge”, where we also had a lecture by the park’s director, Dr. Roland Baier, and learnt that part of the park has been a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 1990.
