It is native to Scandinavia, the Alps, and a region extending from Germany to Western Siberia. [1] [2] [3] Although said by some sources to occur in Britain and Ireland, others say that plants identified as this species are actually Dactylorhiza majalis subsp. traunsteinerioides, [4] a view supported by genetic data.
