- The remote Watzmann massif area represents Germany’s largest contiguous wilderness with interconnected habitats supporting diverse flora and fauna.
- Conflicts between tourism and conservation led to visitor restrictions around fragile sites like the Steinbecken since 2021 to prevent accidents and damage.
- Since its foundation, the park allows forests to develop naturally without human interference, while avalanches and wildlife continuously shape the landscape.
- Ongoing research monitors forest dynamics and species reintroductions, emphasizing natural phenomena like free-flowing streams that sustain the area's biodiversity.
At selected locations we lay out the carcasses of roe deer and chamois.— Michael Maroschek, National Park Berchtesgaden, Research and Monitoring
