Winter

Snowflakes, Snowdrops and Tropical Dreams


A quiet, reflective mood now lies over the Grugapark. Walkers and runners use the widespread network of paths to take a beneficial break from everyday worries. The botanical range also offers attractive eye catchers in winter. The Plant Display Houses and the Mediterraneum invite you into the luxurious plant world of the evergreen climate zones.
