Top Nature 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.

If you're planning to rent a sunbed or umbrella, arrive by 10 AM to snag the best spots before they fill up. I got there a bit later and ended up pretty far back!

Check the weather before you go. I thought it would be sunny all day, but it turned cloudy and rainy in the afternoon. Don't miss the morning sun!

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!
