The ring of the highland botanical garden E. Dioli of Caspoggio

The proposed route reaches the Highland Botanical Garden E. Dioli of Caspoggio by making an easy loop route accessible to anyone. From the center of the village of Caspoggio, we walk through the characteristic old town and reach the Negrini district where it is possible to visit the "truna," one of the greatest ethnographic curiosities of Caspoggio. It is a kind of artificial gallery, which the doors of the surrounding houses overlooked. From the Negrini district we continue until we are at the starting point of the Cavalèra road, the important mule track that connects Caspoggio to S. Antonio. We climb on a comfortable mule track to the village of S. Antonio, recognizable by the presence of a large white church and the arrival point of the chairlift. Here we find the recently established highland botanical garden, where mountain pine, arnica and orchids convince together in a place fully accessible and usable by visitors. The garden is divided into 8 flower beds and includes about 100 plant species. Each species is accompanied by signs indicating the identifying botanical features and traditional use in Valmalenco, which emerged from the ethnobotanical survey conducted in Valmalenco by the University of Milan (DISFARM).

We recommend the return itinerary by making a loop tour then following the driveway or path (be careful not to ride on bike trails) that goes to S. Elisabetta and then Caspoggio. On this route we encounter a nice and lovely alpacas farm whose owner Ladina organizes lots of activities for adults and children.

The garden is open from about mid-June to mid-September, Saturdays and Sundays.
