Hiking Tour with Sparkling EyesBiologists and zoologists’ eyes light up in the Koralpe region. This is due not only to the geological structure—the Koralpe crystalline complex—but also to a biological peculiarity. The mountain range is considered one of the endemic species hotspots of the entire Eastern Alps. Endemic species are animal or plant species that occur only in a specific area worldwide and thus represent a “biological treasure.” Alongside the Zirbitzkogel and the Gesäuse, the Koralpe is one of the region’s most important areas for endemic species. Most of the Koralpe’s endemic species are found particularly in the area around Glitzbach and Glitzfelsen, such as the Koralpe ground beetle. It is therefore almost imperative that we stay on the marked trails to avoid causing the extinction of any endemic species.
