The Stams oak forest (Stamser Eichenwald) is the oldest natural monument in Tyrol and home to a wide variety of different trees and plants. The majority of these species probably already existed here when Stams Abbey was founded and the forest developed more than 700 years ago. To this day, the oak forest is owned by the Cistercian monastery of Stams and serves as protection against floods and mudslides. An exciting nature trail leads along the stream and provides fascinating facts about birds, herbs, grasses and wetlands.
