Tips

April 4, 2017

Hiking

The Italian floral water staircase connects the Mediterranean terraces and the lower shore area with a watercourse from Calanca gneiss in Ticino. The cascade is inspired by the style of Italian Renaissance gardens and is accompanied by columnar real cypresses (Cupressus sempervirens). In the spring and summer, a varied Wechselflorpflanzung sprayed southern flair, in autumn, the magnificent tree coloring sets charming accents.

A visitor magnet 🤩 The Italian flower water staircase connects the Mediterranean terraces and the lower bank area through a watercourse made of Calanca gneiss from Ticino. The cascade is modeled on the style of Italian Renaissance gardens and is accompanied by columnar real cypress trees (Cupressus sempervirens). In spring and summer, a varied planting of alternating flowers exudes a Mediterranean flair, in autumn the splendid color of the trees sets charming accents.
