The Biltmore Estate sits on 85,000 acres of land, overlooking the Blue Ridge Mountains. Stroll acres of formal and informal
gardens designed by America’s foremost landscape architect, Frederick Law
Olmsted. From the beauty of the Italian Garden to the breathtaking trees in
America’s first managed forest, Biltmore’s lush landscape is a living tribute
to Olmsted’s genius. Their horticultural experts continually work to preserve
the original vision for the gardens and grounds, including our Rose Garden that
features more than 250 varieties.
As a century-old model for forest
conservation (and, more recently, for sustainability, thanks to six acres of
solar panels), Biltmore continues to honor Vanderbilt’s legacy of environmental
protection.
