Here’s to another round of EuroNatur’s international photo competition “European Treasures of Nature.” For the 31st time, EuroNatur and its partners in the photo competition are inviting both amateur and professional photographers to capture images of the diverse world of European flora and fauna and the continent’s most beautiful scenery in striking photographs.  

A jury of experts of EuroNatur, “natur”, GELSENWASSER AG and the photo shop LichtBlick in Constance will then select the most impressive images of European nature. The best photographs will be featured in our large EuroNatur calendar and awarded money prizes. The winners’ photos will also be published in both EuroNatur and „natur" magazines and also on the competition organisers’ websites.
 

What can entrants win?

    1st Prize:    1,500 EUR

    2nd Prize:   1,000 EUR

    3rd Prize:       750 EUR

    4th Prize:       500 EUR

    5th Prize:       250 EUR

The 6th – 12th prizes and the Jury Prize are a voucher to the value of 25 EUR to be redeemed against EuroNatur Service GmbH’s range of products. Each winner will also receive a copy of EuroNatur’s 2025 Europen Treasures of Nature wall calendar. Prizes cannot be converted into cash. The organisers’ decision is final.
