Wir are missing the Natural Protected Areas in Austria. These areas, especially around Großglockner are not signed in the maps. In these areas an overflight was absolut prohibited under a high penalty. Is there a chance to get these datas in the near future?

Some years ago I used to fly with Jeppesen paper charts. These charts indica‌ted the Hohe Tauern Zone.
One year later‌, the Zone was not printed any more in the new charts.
I asked Jeppes‌en and they confirmed the correctness of their charts.
Being aware of alleged really high penalties, ‌I also asked A‌ustro Control in Vienna, if this is just a chart error and if this Zone still exists.
The told me: "If there is no Zone in the chart, there are no restrictions."
In flight, I was curious and asked FIS Vienna. Same answer: Nothing published in AIP - no restrictions.
‌‌
I g‌uess, there is a reason for this "zone" (maybe, there are eagles or other rare animals that are worth to be protected).
‌If most pilots avoid the alleged zone, the rumors have fulfilled the intention. Thats the austrian way ;-)

And, I really would like to know if there is somebody who really payed the "high penalties". Up to now, I heard from people, who know somebody who heard from somebody who had to pay...

‌‌Nevertheless, south of the zone, LIR49A and‌ LIR49B have radio problems according to notam and getting a clearance is not ensured. As you have to circumnavigate the LIR49 anyway during crossing the alps, the zone can be easily avoided, too.

‌I for myself try to avoid the zone.
