EXPLORE SÄLEN BOTANICAL GARDEN – A GREEN OASIS IN THE MOUNTAIN WORLD
Nestled in the majestic landscape of the Sälen mountains, where the wonders of nature extend as far as the eye can see, lies a particularly fascinating gem – Sälen Botanical Garden. This unique place is not only a tribute to Scandinavian flora but also a source of inspiration for both the curious visitor and the passionate botanist. Sälen Botanical Garden stands as Sweden's highest situated botanical garden, a title that carries a unique charm and a responsibility to preserve and present alpine flora in a way that few other places can.
A JOURNEY THROUGH FLORA AND FAUNA
Driven by passion and commitment by the non-profit association Sälen's Fjällbotaniska Vänner, the garden spans approximately 4,000 square meters. Here, visitors can experience and learn about over 1,300 meticulously labeled plants, with a special focus on species that are native to the Sälen area as well as alpine species from across Europe. Sälen Botanical Garden is a place where the rare Öland alvar gets a new chance to flourish, and where visitors are given the opportunity to delve into the wonderful world of botany.
MORE THAN JUST A GARDEN
The garden is not only a delight for the eyes; it is also a place for learning, reflection, and relaxation. Here, one can spend hours wandering among the well-kept paths, sitting by a peaceful pond, or simply enjoying the silence and the fresh mountain air. For those seeking a deeper understanding, the garden offers not only signs describing the origins and characteristics of the plants but also organized tours that can enrich the visit with interesting facts and stories.
