I'm gathering ideas for biomes and natural environments. I'd like to know if anyone knows of any natural environment or biome that they find pretty. It could be a description, a picture of nature that you like, anything helps.

Idk why but I find in dense fir and pine woods the ground is so fucking nice becauae you get that thick lush moss. That doesn't seem to work too well on birch forests, as they mulch everything but birch to death. In fall and winter thats fine but otherwise rotten leaves isn't my favourite ground. Don't get me started on fruit bearing trees in summer or autumn, stuff just falls, starts to ferment and reek and also attract all sorts of bugs.

Alpine tundra. Just big ass mountains and big ass stretches of land and big ass sky and no overgrowth or plants to block me so i can go anywhere.
Pic related is from my first out adventure ever when I went to Colorado. A pic similar to this motivated me to go.

I love my area of Appalachia. I bought 10 acres with a 2,000 sq foot house at a very reasonable price. My property is in an area that is mostly national forest and for that reason is very lightly populated. A 200 acre state wildlife sanctuary borders my western property line. Appalachia has a moderate climate, lush vegetation, abundant sunshine and rainfall. We have strong storms that bring heavy rain that quickly pass leading to sunny days. These strong passing storms provide us ample rain while allowing a high percentage of sun during the day. Portions of Appalachia are designated as temperate rain forest.
Appalachia has a tremendous amount of freshwater streams and rivers enabling an abundance of fish and wildlife, including large game such as white tail deer, feral pigs and black bears.
Appalachia also has a rugged, independent, even rebellious population. Appalachia's rugged terrain, moderate climate, abundant fresh water and game make it a perfect area for the guerrilla war fighter.
There are many reasons that US Army Green Berets and Rangers retire to Appalachia. It is a place that calls people steeped in guerrilla warfare home.
Picrel is my horse grazing in a sunlit pasture next to an Appalachian mountain lake 900 feet from his barn.

I visited Devonshire and Wistman's wood a while back. Beautiful but tragic how much of it has been lost

my personal favorites:
41 is the very best if you haven't been, go there
39, is similar and nice but a bit less steep and glaciated of course
40 is the standard, popular mountains, nice but crowded and the roads can be dicey
del water gap is nice
45
only been to the part that surrounds 44 but its basically a hemi-boreal bog but with some interesting narrow gorges and waterfalls
50,42 (the part near 50)
ozarks!
hope to visit this year

I really like rivers in the desert
it concentrates all the life in the area so they usually have lots of cool animals
plus the contrast of the green riparian area with the surrounding desert looks nice
