After our succesful visit to the high altitude alpine garden of Haut Chitelet we visted the high meadows above
the Col de la Schlucht and were amazed by the vegetation. Masses of Arnica montana with Gentiana lutea and high
altitude beech forests were an inforgetable sight for us.

Beautiful pictures Rudi, thanks for posting.
There are similar views in the Carpathian Mts,. although Arnica montana I've never seen in such large quantities.

Gabriela, thank you for your kind reply, It was also quite new to me to find Arnica montana in
such numbers.

Lovely! I have a local Arnica species, which does not have the opportunity to spread so far, but I'm pretty sure that if you let it loose in a field and gave it a few years it would do this....lol.... last year there were only a couple of flowering stems, maybe 3...lol
