Trauttmansdorff Gärten

Beautiful gardens. Only walking through them can take half a day if you take tour time and stop for a coffee at one of the coffee places. There is also a couple of museums inside. And sometimes they have special events like in the winter the lights installation. Great for kids too all year around.

Huge botanical garden with different sections devoted to the plants of the South Tyrol and other regions. Plan to spend at least 3 hours there. We especially enjoyed the Garden for Lovers, the panoramic viewing platform and the Lotus Pond. Wear comfortable shoes! Lots of walking. Great place for kids. So much to see!

The most incredible place! My 12 year old and I lo ed spending 4 hrs here. Well organized. Cafe is great to enjoy the view.

Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area. The beautifully landscaped gardens and the charming museum inside the castle make it a worthwhile experience. Be prepared for quite a bit of walking though: to see everything the gardens have to offer, you’ll cover around 7 kilometres and tackle plenty of elevation gain.

The park is very beautiful and spacious, with excellent green areas and a lovely lake that makes you feel surrounded by nature. In addition, there is a café and a restaurant, with really good services. I definitely recommend the experience if you visit Merano.

If you like flowers and special plants go here. For me all the extra information doesn’t bother me. However I do know that’s me. I did like the hike/walk in the park, lots of nice views. All in all nice place to visit we spend 2/3 hr in the park

Spectacularly large and well-tended botanical garden. We spent several hours and could have spent more- so extensive the different collections. Spots to stop and rest, well-signed, mostly accessible with planning. There are stairs but those can be avoided. There are sections tailored to children and others for those who like modern sculpture or constructed points of interest. Specifically there are two “thrill” installations that allow visitors to overlook the garden mid-air.

Most recommended to go here. Such beautiful gardens and breathtaking view (should you climb all the way up to the observation deck.) At the top beautiful parrots in an Aviary and below Alpaca's, Yak's, Bunnies and chickens. Nice restaurant (a bit pricey), a maze garden, a kids play area etc... Parking a bit difficult, but if you just stand in line for parking, you will eventually get a spot. 🙂 Family ticket for 2 Adults and kid was 36 euros and we stayed over 4 hrs. Totally worth it! 🤗

One of the best garden around Italy. you can see the magic flowers from different seasons, that will make you happy. Takes time to discover and show all nice nature monuments.I will come back. (Bericht den ich fuer einen englischen Gast geschrieben habe)

Overwelmingly beautiful experience, every time! I must say I live here since a couple of years but every time I come the Gardens are totally different. I love it. To visit these Gardens you need at least half a day. You must also be prepared to walk up a few steep steps to reach every corner but you will be rewarded; there are two viewing platforms that offer a breath taking view over the Gardens, the valley and the mountains. The variety of landscapes is wide. I saw cactuses and asian rice terraces next to a Japanese Garden. A forest with ferns and ginko's followed by a bamboo forest. On the sunny side I loved the olive grove (there is a 700 year old olive treeand the water lily pond with the lotus flowers and the Japanese Koi carp fish (some are huge!). Pretty amazing for me also the palm trees with the 10.000 feet high snowcapped mountains in the background. In the summer the place hosts a series of World Music concerts around the water pond; that is a quite spectacular experience. If you get the chance... Highly recommended!
