The Tiefental Valley, often called the Butterfly Valley, is a quiet, almost hidden gem of the Alb. In the warmer months, numerous species of butterflies flutter through here – a sign of the intact natural environment. The entrance leads past an alpaca farm in true style – and if you look around, you might even get a curious look from the woolly onlookers. Do they know that they are the secret mascots of the event?
