Our Historical Garden and Monumental Park are not only places of aesthetics and scenic beauty but small authentic treasure chests of biodiversity. Fabio Zanelli - Land Art Giardinieri will guide us to explore this environment in a deeper and meaningful way, to favor the observation slowing down the time to enhance the look and grasp that hidden world full of details that sometimes we can not notice... At the end of the visit we will look at nature with different eyes! After the walk there is a nice bio&veg tasting in the Cafeteria of the Villa. For those who wish, included in the cost of the ticket, guided tour of the Dominical House to follow.

But it was with Elisabetta Widmann-Rezzonico at the end of the nineteenth century that the Park assumed the appearance that we can still admire today. Of great suggestion is the romantic artificial lake that houses centuries-old bald water cypresses. The Garden of Villa Widmann houses some specimens of the Dogaressa a variety of Gallic rose created "ad hoc" a few years ago by two nurserymen and Giulio Pantoli, the greates
