The 'Castel' has a vegetation that is typical of the Calestienne soil that is rich in limestone. The park can pride itself on having a surprising variety of trees, which lead to the creation of a signposted didactic arboretum.
Most of the trees are indigenous broadleaved trees : oak and hornbeam typical of the Famenne, beech and birch that seem to have come down from the close by Ardennes , maple, ash and alder that appreciate the more or less rich and cool soil of the valley, box tree, dogwood, viburnum lantane, dog rose, species that grow on the dry soil of the Calestienne, but also a few giant sequoias (that dominate the plain below the Castel Sainte-Marie).
