Visit Gardaland
Gardaland is the largest amusement park in Italy. It’s located near Lake Garda, though not directly on the lakefront, in the town of Castelnuovo del Garda, in the province of Verona.
It opened in 1975 and over the years has become Italy’s most visited theme park, and the eighth most visited in Europe.
The park is divided into themed zones, with over 40 attractions and several roller coasters. On top of that, there are shows for all ages, musicals, and parades.
With so much to see and do, a full day isn’t always enough—we recommend spending two days if you can.
Gardaland is known for its excellent organization and attention to detail in all services.
As Italy’s most visited park and one of the top 10 in Europe, we advise avoiding weekends and public holidays when the park is at its busiest.
Thrill-seekers will enjoy rides like Shaman, Oblivion, Raptor, Blue Tornado and Space Vertigo.
Gardaland also features themed hotels and the SEA LIFE Aquarium, home to over 5,000 marine creatures visible through an underwater tunnel. You can purchase a combined ticket for both the aquarium and the park.
Blue Tornado
Blue Tornado is arguably Gardaland’s most iconic ride. It was the first inverted coaster ever built in Italy.
Raptor
Raptor is one of Gardaland’s most famous rides. It’s Italy’s first winged coaster and a true fan favorite.
Oblivion
Oblivion is one of Gardaland’s thrill rides and the longest dive coaster in all of Europe. Feel the rush of a 90° vertical drop!
Space Vertigo
Space Vertigo is Gardaland’s free-fall tower, standing about 40 meters tall. An adrenaline-filled space-themed experience.
Shaman
Shaman, also known as Magic Mountain, is one of Gardaland’s classic roller coasters. Its double loop will leave you breathless.
Mammut
Mammut is the longest roller coaster in Italy. Perfect for families, it features a polar theme with icy Arctic scenery.
Fantasy Kingdom
Fantasy Kingdom is Gardaland’s dedicated children’s area, featuring Prezzemolo’s tree, Peppa Pig Land, and Kung Fu Panda Academy.
Prezzemolo
Prezzemolo, the long-eared green dragon, has been the beloved symbol of Gardaland since the park opened in 1975.
Escape from Atlantis
Escape from Atlantis is a water-themed ride where visitors board large boats in search of the legendary lost city.
