Rhododendron Park Gristede

Under the protection of tall pines, more than 1,000 species and varieties of rhododendrons and free-range azaleas are presented in the Rhododendron Park in Gristede. Garden lovers will find magnificent flowers, lush growth and with some varieties great fragrances.

The park was open to the public from day one and quickly became a place of pilgrimage for rhododendron lovers from around the world. During the main blooming season from late April to early June, the number of visitors is always very large. The entrance area was redesigned in autumn 2007. Extensive ponds with elaborate shrub and grass plantings were created here. Chinese sequoias and Japanese maple and conus species give the park, which is ideal for long walks, a unique character.
