The botanic garden Alpinia stretches on about 4 ha, is located near Stresa at 800 m altitude and can be reached following the road that leads to the Mottarone peak (1491 m) or by cable car (Lido Alpino Mottarone).
Characteristic for the garden are above all the species belonging to the alpine and subalpine zones of the Alps, although quite ramarkable are also some species common to the Caucasus as well as to China and Japan.
It is open from 1st April until 15th October (closed on Monday) from 9.00 to 18.00.
