How to Get to Gardaland

Gardaland is located in Castelnuovo del Garda, in the province of Verona, along the eastern shores of Lake Garda. Thanks to its prime location, the park is easily accessible by car, train, and bus from major Italian cities, while also sitting within easy reach of several key Northern Italian airports.

Traveling by Car

Driving is the most convenient option for many visitors, as the park lies close to the main motorway networks of Northern Italy.

  • Routes from Milan and the West
    Take the A4 Milan to Venice motorway and exit at Peschiera del Garda. From the toll exit, follow the local road signs to reach the park entrance in just a few minutes.
  • Routes from Venice and the East
    Drive westbound along the A4 motorway toward Milan. Take the Peschiera del Garda exit, or use the Sommacampagna exit as a convenient alternative during peak traffic.
  • Routes from Bologna and the South
    Follow the A22 Brennero motorway to the A4 junction, then head toward Milan and exit at either Sommacampagna or Peschiera del Garda. Drivers starting from Modena can also connect directly onto the main A4 route.

Parking Facilities

Gardaland offers large paid parking lots directly adjacent to the main entrance gates. During peak periods, especially on summer weekends and special event days, arriving early before opening time ensures a quick and hassle-free spot.

The closest railway station to Gardaland is Peschiera del Garda, situated roughly two kilometers from the park. The station is connected by two main railway lines:

  • Trenord on the regional Milan, Brescia, and Verona line
