Greetings! We, in the Nockberge Biosphere Reserve, protect and utilize the wonderful diversity of our nature, the uniqueness of the region and the cultural values in a balanced relationship. I'd love to show you more!
Welcome to the Carinthian Nockberge Biosphere Reserve!
Together with Salzburg’s Lungau region, we have been Austria’s largest UNESCO biosphere reserve since 2012, recognised as a model region for sustainable development and as a particularly valuable habitat for people and nature. Here, people put the abstract principle of sustainability into practice. Nature conservation, economic and social development are harmonised in the process.
Enjoy exploring the Carinthian Nockberge Biosphere Reserve!
