Germinated at +2.8° C and regular rainfall – 20 meters high at + 4° C, drought and extreme precipitation. The trees in Parc Ela have to cope with this possible scenario. Let yourself be carried away for an evening into a warm and dry future and learn which tree species can make the forest as resilient as possible.

This has been researched since 2017 in a long-term experiment throughout Switzerland. With Tiefencastel and Latsch, two of the 59 test areas are located in Parc Ela. At the heart of the matter is the question: Which of the tree species that are considered suitable on a site towards the end of the 21st century can already thrive there today?

Get exciting insights into the forest of the future with Urs Fliri, the district manager of Forst Albula. You will visit the test area above Bergün, where 8 coniferous and deciduous tree species have been planted. During the next 30-50 years, their prosperity will be scientifically examined.
