Top Parks in Lombardy

If you can, visit around 8 am to enjoy the quiet before the crowds roll in. It’s the perfect time to take beautiful photos without people everywhere.

Check out the little petting zoo near the castle. It's not huge but totally cute and my kids loved it! It was a nice surprise.

Grab a gelato from a nearby cafe before you enter; it's perfect for enjoying while you stroll through the park!

Look for the little free art exhibits scattered throughout the gardens; they’re a nice surprise and add to the experience

Grab a guided audio tour if you're a history buff. I thought the extra few euros were worth it to dive deeper into the life of D'Annunzio and the history of the place.

I suggest bringing a reusable water bottle; you'll find fountains along the trails, so you can refill and save some bucks on buying drinks.

If you're into hiking, pack some snacks and hit the trails around 8 AM to avoid the crowds and catch the stunning morning views. Trust me, it's worth it!

If you're planning to hike, I suggest hitting the trails early in the morning around 7:30 AM. It gets crowded later, and you'll enjoy the peacefulness of nature better!

Bring your own snacks and drinks! There's not much around the park for food and it can get pricey, so having a little picnic saved us some cash and made the day more fun.

I recommend visiting Punta Gro in the late afternoon around 4 PM when the light is perfect for photos and the crowds start to thin out. Trust me, it makes a big difference!
