About this book

Language: French

Alpine ice worlds and dry steppes, vast moors alongside bizarre karst areas, ancient terraced vineyards, picturesque lakes, impressive gorges and waterfallsthe beauty of the Swiss countryside is famous the world over.

In terms of a "Best of" the "Bundesinventar der Landschaften und Naturdenkmäler von nationaler Bedeutung" (BLN, a federal Inventory of landscapes and natural monuments of national importance ) encompasses a total of 162 exceptional areas: large landscapes and well-known gems such as the Bernese Alps or the high moorland area Chaltenbrunnen, the Lavaux and other special cultural landscapes and natural monuments such as the Lucerne Glacier Garden or the pyramids of Euseigne.

With brilliant photographs, brief descriptions of landscapes and map extracts, all 162 BLN objects of Swizterland are presented here. The landscape portraits together form an aesthetically pleasing and informative reference book, which comprehensively documents the fascinating richness of landscapes in Switzerland and shows the value of its natural heritage.


Summary in French:
Des mondes alpins de glaces et des steppes sèches, de vastes marais à côté de régions karstiques bizarres, des vignobles en terrasses très anciens, des gorges et des chûtes d'eau imposantes - les beautés des paysages suisses sont célèbres dans le monde entier.

Dans le sens d'un "Best of", l'inventaire fédéral des paysages, sites et monuments naturels d'importance nationale (IFP) réunit un total 162 régions insolites: de vastes paysages et des joyaux célèbres comme les Hautes-Alpes bernoises ou le haut marais de Chaltenbrunnen, le Lavaux et d'autres paysages ruraux spéciaux, ainsi que les moments naturels comme le Jardin des glaciers de Lucerne ou les pyramides de terre d'Euseigne.

Le présent volume donne un visage au patrimoine naturel de Suisse. Les 162 objets IFP y sont présentés à travers des photos brillantes, de brèves descriptions de paysage et des cartes représentant la région. Les portraits de paysages se transforment en un ouvrage de référence esthétique et informatif qui documente largement la richesse fascinante des paysages de Suisse et présente la valeur du patrimoine naturel de Suisse.
