The new park of the Hotel Quellenhof in Bad Ragaz is one of our project highlights. Deliberately selected large trees were placed in such a way that an impressive picture is created as soon as you arrive at the hotel. The large trees provide a flowing transition between nature and the hotel building with a wonderful view of the surrounding mountain landscape. Simple gravel paths, lush green areas and lush flowering shrubs surround the setting and further emphasize the natural experience.
Entrance area with fountain
The focal point of the new park is the spacious entrance area with a fountain with a natural stone cladding. Water bubblers let the water glide over the natural stone and provide a gentle splash. A spray mist system covers the area in front of the hotel entrance in a mystical blanket of mist every few minutes.
The fountain is bordered by steel bands and accompanied by lush flowering shrubs, grasses and evergreen woody plants. Thus, the natural element of water is surrounded by the greenery of plants in every season. If you walk further, you will discover a seating area with plant islands behind the natural stone wall, which serves as a small retreat near the water all year round thanks to the evergreen shrubbery. Concrete benches have been placed in it in such a way that a green roof stretches over the seating area.
