Vegetation of rare beauty

In 2006, landscape architect Sandrine Michaillat from Geneva provided our park with an additional asset by creating a botanic walk for visitors to discover a large number of trees and plants. 
The subtropical park of the Parco San Marco has a particularly rich and beautiful vegetation. Visitors are supplied with in-depth information sheets describing each plant.  
Thus, a new look and a new perspective are provided while touring the park of the hotel - a very unique way of discovering and enjoying this magnificient region. 

There is a total of 66 identified plants and trees in the whole park:

  • Papyrus from Madagascar
  • Canabis palmtree, brought to Europa from China in 1850
  • the 150 years old Lotus Plum 
  • the 300 years old Himalayan Cedar
  • Silver Acacia from North America, used for producing high quality Caran d'Ache pencils
  • the 200 year old Cork Oak (tree bark of such oaks is used to make cork stoppers)
