Mincio nature park

Parco del Mincio

Mincio nature park: a wetland with diverse flora and rich fauna, unspoilt nature and medieval villages that invite you to explore them.

The park is situated in the Eastern part of Lombardy. The first tract of the Mincio river flows through the gentle slopes of the morenic hills of the Garda Lake and it crosses the medieval villages that are dominated by little castles. Downhill the Mincio river creates the widest humid area of the Mincio Valleys, that is natural reserve hosting many specimen of birdlife and water or marsh flora.
Around Mantua, the City of the Gonzaga Family, the Mincio River widens out forming three lakes, then the river flows between high banks until when it mixes its water with that of the Po River.
