ALPARC wishes Happy Birthday to theSwiss National Park (SNP) who celebrates its centenary. Founded on 1st August 1914, the pioneers created a unique wilderness oasis where the natural development occurs without human influence. In the oldest national park of the Alps, this remarkable nature experiment has been scientifically observed and documented for hundred years.

In occasion of the Swiss National Park's Birthday, ALPARC offers  new postcards "special centenary". 

A colourful bouquet of anniversary projects provides a multi-facetted insight into a century of wilderness development.
