Historic Alpinum

Alpinum Schatzalp, Davos Platz

The Alpinum is a botanical alpine garden with around 5000 different plant species and varieties from all the mountains of the world. Admire what culture and nature are capable of at 1800 meters.

The historic Alpinum was first mentioned in a newspaper article in 1907. At that time, this part of the garden was used by patients for recreation. Here they could marvel at the diversity of the adjacent Strelakette and use it to recover. Today, this part of the garden, which can be visited free of charge, together with the Big Five Garden, is the heart of the lower garden area. Visit our Wednesday guided tour or book for a private event to gain an in-depth insight into this area.
In the Big Five Garden, we have planted part of our collection of 5 large-flowered perennials. In our centerpiece of the lower gardens, you can admire irises (Iris), peonies (Paeonia), daylilies (Hemerocallis), delphinium (Delphinium) and Turk's-poppies (Papaver) in all their glory from June to October. Alongside plenty of accompanying and additional planting, of course. The winding, small paths make this hillside garden something very special, especially in the evening hours. Discover this variety of horticultural cultivation free of charge on the south side of the hotel.
