After bark beetles devastated vast spruce forests in the 1990s, the Bavarian Forest underwent a remarkable natural rebirth. A rich, mixed woodland of spruce, ash, beech and fir emerged, attracting many returning species — even lynx and otters. The film follows the Bavarian Forest National Park through the seasons: vibrant autumn colors, the harsh but pristine winter, spring’s slow revival, and summer’s burst of birds, insects and new life. It captures how wilderness has reclaimed the region entirely on its own, offering year-round glimpses into a thriving, self-renewing forest ecosystem. ➡ Subscribe: @FreeHighQualityDocumentaries #fullepisode #animals #documentary #wildlife #forest
