The vegetation of the park ranges from warm temperate to alpine zones.

These connected peaks reach well into the treeless alpine zone.

Within this range it was absent in extremely dry deserts and alpine zones.

"But it's time to get beyond the alpine zone!"

In the alpine zone, temperatures are often low enough that these methods are not sufficient.

Above the lower alpine zone there is usually frost every night.

This is the top of the alpine zone, in effect.

The mountain's summit is an alpine zone above tree line, and views of the surrounding high peaks are available in all directions.

The alpine zone replaces the forest around 2,000 metres above sea level.

The alpine zone lies between the height of 2,000 and 3,000 metres.
