Experience & Activities | Alpha Lavender
The farm, the tours of the grounds, the photo spots and our gift shop
Your tour of the estate begins with an introduction to the magical world of lavender. You learn step by step how the plant is cultivated, how it is harvested and how it reaches the distillery, where with care and modern know-how it is transformed into pure, handmade products. Each stage is revealed before you, with the producer himself sharing knowledge, secrets and little stories that make the experience at the attraction even more exciting.
Continuing, you will meet the estate’s apiaries. Here you will learn how we care for the bees, what their relationship is with lavender and how lavender honey is produced. The importance of proper care is a point of reference for us and thus you will gain a more complete picture of the value of the bee in the biodiversity of the estate. In the botanical garden you will wander among varieties of aromatic plants. While you will learn practical uses, little “tricks” on how to utilize herbs in your everyday life, and you will see how each plant strengthens our ecosystem.
As you explore the estate, you will arrive at our small farm. A lively experience that brings young and old closer to animals and nature. Here, you will meet the animals that live harmoniously in the space and participate in simple care activities for them, always under the guidance of the staff. These are moments that fill with smiles, especially for children, as they come into contact with farm life and learn experientially about respect for the environment and animals.
A little further on, the landscape changes pace and invites you to capture it in every way. The enchanting photo spots of the estate are scattered everywhere, paths that cross the blooming lavender fields, wooden terraces overlooking the valley, pergolas that frame the sunlight and small corners decorated with handmade details. In the spring when everything is in bloom, every spot can become your next “frame.” A photo that will keep the scent and colors of the experience alive, either to share or to remember.
