Description

Areas left to nature are areas in which natural processes can take place essentially undisturbed and direct human influences determine the (current) development only to a small extent. In such areas, the composition of animal and plant communities differs from that in the cultivated landscape. The areas left to nature in Switzerland can be divided into "wilderness areas" in the forest (forest wilderness), areas left to nature in the high mountains (alpine fallow) and areas along water bodies (floodplains). The areas may or may not be accessible. Of central importance is the intensity of human activities.
