"Half of South Tyrol is covered in forests. Here you can find 111 different types of forest with 1113 plant species, 173 mosses, 49 tree species and 23 small forests. The mountain pine is the one that grows above the trees, on avalanche paths and also in the valleys. It has an important protective function. The mountain pine has deep and intertwined roots. It bravely resists natural forces such as avalanches or landslides, protecting the pastures and meadows below. Here in the Sarentino Valley, the plant is appreciated for its beneficial properties for body and soul: for over 100 years, 100% natural mountain pine essential oil has been produced here, in the heart of South Tyrol."
