Monte Faverghera is a mountain slope in Dolomites that peaks at 1,611 m.

It is best known for the world class Giardino Botanico delle Alpi Orientali or Botanic Garden of the Oriental Alps. It is one of the most important Alpine botanic gardens in the entire Alpine range. The garden, created in 1969, occupies a quarry close to the top of a mountain. Spread over an area of only about 6.25 hectares, the garden contains an incredible number of plant species thriving in its diverse topography.

The garden is located within a 606-hectare nature reserve and is incredibly beautiful any time of the year. To better enjoy the blooms of its many wild and introduced plants, visit Monte Faverghera from late June up to the end of July. The only way to get to the garden is on foot, making it completely pristine and pollution-free.
