Description
A scenic combination of mountain pass, cliffs, and alpine meadows, the Pas de Maimbre is an excellent location to observe typical alpine species such as the жолтоклуна галка and црвеноклуна галка up close. It is also home to the брадест мршојадец, which, with a bit of patience, can often be seen in all its majestic beauty. Common species here include карпеста трепетилка, гавран, снежна ѕвингалка, and обично камењарче. Sometimes белоглав мршојадец are observed; these are immature individuals from a population in Southern Europe that spend the summer in Switzerland. With a bit of luck, observations of карполазач, обично ливадарче, сив сокол, златен орел, and Citril Finch are possible.

Access
The area can be reached via the cable car from the village of Anzère. Parking is available at the cable car station (paid) or elsewhere in the village, 10 minutes by foot to the cable car. The ride to the top takes approximately 10 minutes.
At the top of the Pas de Maimbré, a walk of about 50 minutes can be taken, during which брадест мршојадец, црвеноклуна галка, and жолтоклуна галка may be observed. It is recommended to go up around midday, as the брадест мршојадец is less active and harder to spot in the morning.
