Sigurtà Garden Park

The Sigurtà Garden Park is open every day, including holidays, from 8 March to 10 November:

on April 1st (Easter Monday), April 25th and May 1st 2024 entry will be limited and advance tickets on sale here will NOT be valid.

The Sigurtà Garden Park is a naturalistic oasis of 600,000 square meters which boasts over 6 centuries of history; already awarded as the Most Beautiful Park in Italy and Second Most Beautiful Park in Europe, in 2023 the Garden Tourism Network awarded the Park as one of the best gardens in the world worth visiting.

The Sigurtà Park hosts countless points of interest: a magnificent 2500 square meter labyrinth, the Avenue of Roses with thousands of re-flowering specimens along a kilometer of promenade, the Great Lawn with the Flowering Lakes in the centre, 18 bodies of water including the evocative Water Gardens, Tulipanomania, the flowering with more than a million tulips, awarded in 2022 as the Best Tulip Festival in the world.

And then historic buildings, such as the Hermitage and the Castelletto, centuries-old trees such as the Great Oak, the Farm for the little ones, the Panoramic Walk: this and much more is the treasure guarded by the Sigurtà Garden Park.

Sigurtà Park has a double soul: an Italian-style design characterized by geometric designs that circumscribe the space and an English-style one that is based on the combination of natural and artificial elements such as caves, centuries-old trees, small temples where those who walk perceive nature orderly even when it takes on a more spontaneous character. This green treasure, nestled on the moraine hills a stone's throw from Lake Garda, has been a destination for hundreds of thousands of visitors in every opening season for over 45 years.

The Garden can be visited on foot, by bicycle (with your own or by renting the electric version from the rental service inside the Park), on electric golf carts or on board the panoramic train.

The Park is committed to promoting sustainable and environmentally friendly practices, for this reason, over the years, it has made choices that have revolutionized its world.
