Schauwiese Promau

In the Promau, there is a network of fen areas and various other types of wet meadow. The vegetation, which is very species-rich with almost 80 plant species, is dominated by moor grass and
panicled sedge. Numerous impressive and endangered flowering plants, including a number of orchids, can be found here. The Austrian spurge is found worldwide only between the Ötscher and the Salzkammergut.
