Discover Mount Baldo, the famous "Hortus Europae" – the Garden of Europe – through an immersive experience among nature, history, and unique biodiversity in the world. During this excursion, you will walk through landscapes shaped by ancient glaciations, along paths that host nearly 2000 rare and extraordinary botanical species.
An enchanting journey in the footsteps of great European botanists who, since the sixteenth century, trekked up these mountains in search of new species to catalog. The visit can then continue to the Biodiversity Museum of Novezzina and the Botanical Garden, symbolic places that tell the deep connection between man and nature on Mount Baldo.
An authentic experience for those who wish to experience the mountain with curious eyes, among spectacular views, tales of explorers, and the timeless charm of the "Garden of Europe."
