Parc Highlights

• Offers magnificent views across Lake Garda

• Excellent pool complex with waterslides

• Superb restaurant offering delicious local cuisine

Overlooking Lake Garda itself, Eden is perfect for touring and a favourite for watersports.

Set on a steeply terraced hillside and enjoying spectacular lakeside views, Eden is truly a haven for all watersports enthusiasts. You can windsurf, waterski, sail a dinghy or paddle a canoe from the beaches at Salò or Baia del Vento less than a kilometre away. And when you want a slightly more leisurely pursuit, there is the easily accessible little lakeside beach for swimming and sunbathing. This family run parc offers first class pool facilities, or you can simply choose to relax with a glass of wine whilst admiring the surrounding scenery. Alternatively, take in the equally breathtaking views of Lake Garda from picturesque Salò and the pretty lakeside town of Portese, with its lake ferry that can take you to Gardaland.

Pre-bookable zoned accommodation is available to book on this parc. For more information on zone locations please view the sitemap above.
