A concrete commitment to biodiversity protection, environmental sustainability and a plastic-free future.
Le Ali del Frassino, nestled in the heart of the Laghetto del Frassino Natural Oasis, continues to stand out for its dedication to environmental conservation and the promotion of sustainable practices. The surrounding area, recognized as a Special Protection Zone (ZPS) and part of the Natura 2000 network, hosts a unique ecosystem rich in biodiversity, as well as a significant archaeological heritage from the Bronze Age, acknowledged by UNESCO.
A Commitment to Protecting Nature
Over the years, our resort has implemented a series of concrete initiatives to safeguard this extraordinary territory. Key actions include:
Biodiversity Conservation
- Creation of an organic vineyard with traditional tree-supported vines to enhance the agricultural ecosystem.
- Planting of 400 native trees and protection of ancient trees within the oasis, including a rare 200-year-old pear tree.
- Installation of pollinator shelters and bat houses, essential for maintaining ecological balance.
- Care and protection of the reed bed, a crucial habitat for bird nesting.
- Rotational grass cutting, preserving wildflowers and protecting insects and small mammals.
Sustainable Architecture
The Belvedere Suites, built in 2018, are designed using natural materials and feature sedum green roofs with solar panels, ensuring a reduced environmental impact and seamless integration with the surrounding landscape.

Le Ali del Frassino has taken significant steps towards eliminating single-use plastic:
- Paper cups in guest rooms and the spa.
- Eco-friendly courtesy sets, using sustainable packaging.
- Reduction of plastic bottles, replaced with reusable alternatives.
