Sheep create life

True to the Nature Park’s motto in 2022 “Cultural landscapes create life” and representative of the extensive form of farming close to nature, this year’s spe-cial exhibition with the name “Sheep create life” is dedicated to the important topic of sheep farming in the Ötztal and the centuries-old tradition of the trans-humance. In addition, the beneficial connection between biodiversity and sus-tainable management of alpine pastures is addressed, the biological value of cul-tural landscape elements such as dry stone walls is demonstrated and the re-gionality of products from the valley is presented.

Well worth seeing
