Parco Giardino Sigurtà is a sprawling public park in Verona, Italy. Visitors can ride bikes, which can be rented on-site, or stroll along a variety of easy walking trails. The park makes for a great day-long destination as there's loads to do, including water-themed and medicinal herb gardens, a maze, an animal farm, and lots of cafes and restaurants.

The Villa Sigurtà retains the luxury injected into it by the Maffei Counts in the 17th century. During its long and storied history, the villa has played host to emperors, kings, princes, and Nobel laureates. The grounds contain an impressive garden, presided over by a giant Ginkgo Biloba. The romantic path inspired by the poet Ippolito Pindemonte leads to the Nymphaeum with waterfalls and jets. After a walk among the oaks, maples and rose bushes, make a toast to your experience with a glass of local wine. Audio guided tours are available in Italian, English, German, French, Spanish and Russian at Villa Sigurtà.
