Summer Solstice: The Most Magical Evening of the Year in the Naturalpina Garden
Summer Solstice: The Most Magical Evening of the Year in the Naturalpina Garden
Accademia Botanica is hosting a special event to welcome the start of summer, exploring the plant species that bring color to the Naturalpina garden at dusk (on the shortest night of the year!) and the traditional rituals that mark this special, meaningful transition.
A unique opportunity to visit our aromatic gardens at dusk, by candlelight!
During a guided walk led by Alice, we’ll encounter various plant species and learn about their properties and essences. We’ll enjoy a relaxing “walking” tasting in the garden, where you can savor our natural herbal teas, made with mountain herbs and flowers.
Finally, we will learn how to prepare the traditional St. John’s water, a symbol of good luck, in anticipation of the night of June 23–24.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
- A Welcome from Naturalpina
- The Plants of San Giovanni: Guided Tour of the Herb Garden, Harvesting, and Botanical Explanation of the Most Representative Species
- A delightful walking tasting tour of Naturalpina herbal infusions made with edible herbs and flowers, set in the charming atmosphere of our aromatic garden, illuminated by lanterns and the magical light of the longest day of the year
- Preparing St. John’s Water, according to tradition: an ancient ritual that remains relevant today
The event will take place on Saturday, June 21, 2025, at 8:00 p.m., at Naturalpina Dolomiti in Belluno, located at 150 Via Giamosa.
Space is limited!
