A magical spring day draws to a close as the last golden rays of sunshine bathe the gentle hills of the Albvorland in warm light. The striking conical shape of Limburg Castle near Weilheim an der Teck towers in the centre of this peaceful landscape - a silent witness to times gone by and a popular landmark of the region.
A sea of flowering orchards stretches out at its feet. Apple and pear trees are in full spring splendour, their blossoms glowing in delicate white and pink. The sweet scent of fresh blossom fills the air, while the first birds of the evening sing their song.
The sunset brings a special magic to the scene - soft light, long shadows, golden reflections on the meadows. A hint of mist lies in the distance over the valley and intensifies the mood of tranquillity, vastness and awakening nature.
This unique cultural landscape on the edge of the Swabian Jura combines nature, history and rural beauty in perfect harmony. It stands for sustainable utilisation, biodiversity and deep roots in the region.
An ideal moment for photographers, hikers and nature lovers - captured from a bird's eye view, this picture invites you to dream and linger.
