A place where nature is truly alive

Framed by the Adige River and the hills of Verona, Bussolengo is the perfect meeting place between the city and lake. 

Situated just a few kilometres from Verona and Lake Garda, this municipality has always been a crossroads for trade and travellers. One of the highlights of the town is Villa Spinola, a 15th-century residence that has become a cultural centre. Immersed in nature with a splendid view of the Adige Valley and Valpolicella, it hosts events, exhibitions, and civil weddings. But the true gem of Bussolengo is Parco Natura Viva, one of Europe’s leading wildlife parks, founded in the 1960s. Here, exotic and native animals live in a setting that combines conservation, education, and adventure for the whole family. A surprising place that entertains and leaves room for discovery.

Bussolengo, with its shopping centres and many cultural events, is a versatile destination for anyone looking for relaxation and entertainment.
