What you can expect

  • By reservation, the Park is open to those who wish to visit the historic garden. Visitors are taken on a journey around the world through the plants that the park's landscape architect expertly collected over the course of his life. The unique nature of the plants that come from rocky deserts all over the world and that have adapted well to Etna's lava, the system of ancient terraces typical of Etnean cultivation that houses a vast collection of subtropical plants, and the remaining lush Etnean forest with its centuries-old endemic vegetation all offer the opportunity to immerse yourself in the culture and nature of this part of Sicily.
