What you can expect

  • Upon reservation, the Park is open to those who wish to visit the historic garden. Visitors are guided on a journey around the world through the plants that its landscaper has expertly collected over the course of his life. The unique plants that come from rocky deserts around the world and have adapted well to the lava of Etna, the system of ancient terraces typical of Etna's crops that is home to a vast collection of subtropical plants, and the lush Etna forest that remains from centuries-old endemic vegetation, offer the opportunity to immerse yourself in the culture and nature of this part of Sicily.
