Parc Suisse Biosphere Reserve

The reserve spans through alpine meadows, dense forests, and glacial valleys between the municipalities of Val Müstair and Scuol in eastern Switzerland.

The area gained UNESCO biosphere reserve status in 2017, incorporating the Swiss National Park, Val Müstair, and the municipality of Scuol into one protected region.

The reserve maintains strong connections with local communities, supporting traditional farming methods and regional products while promoting environmental education programs.

Visitors can access educational resources and regional information at the National Park Centre in Zernez, which remains open throughout the year.

Research programs within the reserve monitor changes in alpine ecosystems, providing data about climate impacts on mountain environments and wildlife populations.
