The Alps from Above is a fascinating journey across the "roof of Europe". The bird's eye view opens up completely new perspectives of the majestic and diverse world of the Alps. Our homeland, which we think we know, is hardly recognizable from above: Serpentines become abstract paintings, images of rock formations are reminiscent of lunar landscapes and mountain villages look like doll's houses.
The aerial expedition takes us over the Dolomites, Mont Blanc, the Allgäu and the Aletsch glacier, among others, which are presented to us in the full splendor of their panorama. The Alps from Above is also a journey through the history and geography of the Alps, showing how unique and worthy of protection our mountain world is and how man has tried to make this natural space his own.
