Die Bergretter

Dive into the real and fantastic world of mountains, experience stories and adventures up close in the most beautiful locations of "The Mountain Rescuers," and look forward to the richly illustrated book about the cult series on ZDF, which also provides an exciting insight into the work of real mountain rescuers. Sebastian Ströbel, best known as control center manager Markus Kofler, shares his life in the Dachstein region, where he now feels at home. Heri Eisl, an experienced mountain rescuer who ensures safety behind the scenes, recounts spectacular rescue operations as well as dramas that have unfolded in the mountains. This creates a comprehensive portrait of the magnificent mountain world around Ramsau, which the two explore on a joint hike, alternating between the film world and the real world. We learn a lot about the alpine world surrounding the Dachstein, which has been designated a UNESCO World Natural and Cultural Heritage site, its spectacular nature, and why mountain rescuers never lose faith in people and the purpose of their work. Useful information for your stay and tips for sightseeing and activities will inspire you to visit the region and the original filming locations of the series. Together with the real and fictional crews on the mountain, the mountain ranges themselves are the true heroes of the book, masterfully showcased in their beauty and fascination.
