The Mincio River, the only outlet of Lake Garda, flows beneath the large bastions and the buildings of the ancient military barracks. Peschiera on lake Garda is built around the canals of the river that flows out of Lake Garda. The historical town center, built in the style of Venice with narrow streets and squares, is enclosed by a 16th century fortress with five bastions. There are many excellent restaurants and trattorias in the center of town.

A very popular event held in Peschiera del Garda is the Palio delle Mura, a historical Venetian rowing race that takes place around the fortress and its walls. Gardaland, Italy’s most famous amusement park, is right outside of Peschiera. The magnificent Parco Giardino Sigurtà, just eight kilometers from Peschiera, is one of the world’s most beautiful ecological gardens. With its picturesque views, memorable panoramas, and a huge variety of plants and flowers distributed throughout an area of 600,000 square meters, it could easily be a corner of paradise, but it is actually closer than you might think.

Bought in 1941 by Dr. Carlo Sigurtà, the park was first open to the public on March 19, 1978. Since then, this natural oasis has fascinated thousands of visitors (including illustrious guests such as Nobel Prize winners and Heads of State). Internationally renowned botanists consider it one of the world’s most extraordinary gardens. Parco Natura Viva, the large zoo of Lake Garda just a few kilometers from Peschiera del Garda, covers a large hilly area and is home to more than 2,000 species of exotic animals.
