Alpine Botanical Garden: A Quiet Walk Through Nature

Writer's picture: Boaz AlbertBoaz Albert

We recently spent about an hour wandering through the Alpine Botanical Garden on the Cansiglio Plateau. While it’s not necessarily a place to go out of your way, it’s a lovely spot to explore if you’re already in the area. Nestled between the provinces of Belluno, Treviso, and Pordenone, this garden offers a peaceful retreat into nature.



The garden spans around 25,000 square meters and is home to nearly 1,000 species of plants. You'll appreciate the variety here if you’re into botany or enjoy quiet nature walks. From alpine environments to wetlands and beech forests, the different habitats greatly showcase the regional flora. The blooms we saw were beautiful, and we were surrounded by towering trees. If you're lucky, you might even spot some of the local wildlife.



One of the cool things about this place is that it’s not just about admiring plants—there’s an educational side, too. The garden has panels that give you insight into the different plant species and environments, adding more depth to the visit. It was designed in 1972 by Professor Giovanni Lorenzoni, and it’s clear that the emphasis was placed on conservation and education.



It’s not a giant tourist hotspot, so it was quiet there. But if you’re already exploring the Cansiglio Forest or the surrounding areas, it’s worth popping in for a short visit. Something is refreshing about just walking through and seeing how the garden mirrors the diversity of the larger landscape.



Overall, while it may not be a destination in itself, the Alpine Botanical Garden is a peaceful, educational stop to add to your itinerary if you're nearby and have some time to spare.
