We went on a beautiful sunny day. You can walk up to 7 hours or smaller walks. Very easy hiking but do wear proper hiking shoes. As there is uneven ground, cobbles, & quite loose footings on the bridges. We parked at san martino a small village where there is plenty of long or short spaces on offer. From here you start the hike all well sign posted. We had lunch at the rifugio luna nascente, i recommend this one from experience. Or take your own picnic therecare plenty of places to stop. I would allow at least 3 to 4 hours to do the medium hike.

A natural park rich in woods, prairies, and with dozens of ponds, where thousands of wild birds come both for nesting and as migrant. Moreover we breed rare species of birds (White stork, European spoonbill, Glossy ibis, Stilt, Avocet, Otter, Red squirrel) and reintroduce the youngs into the wild. Often we keep our animals in large aviaries where we try to reproduce natural environment with ponds, woods, fishes and so on. The tropical section is dedicated to plants, mammals, birds, reptiles from the rainforest. We specialize in hummingbirds. We have a large aviary where butterflies and hummingbirds roam free, foraging in thousands of flowers. Our specialty includes european kingfisher, dipper, all european sturgeons, pike, birds of paradise, cocks-of-the-rock, lammergeier. Every days (except on thursdays) hawks and falcons fly free. Visitors are introduced in the park thru the medieval castle built in the XI century, still intact but enlarged during the XV.

The Lombardy Region officially recognised the Nature Reserve of Manerba del Garda ("Della Rocca, del Sasso e Parco Lacuale") with a regional resolution in April 2016. The park covers a territory of approximately 1,160,000 m2 (include meadows, woodland, trails, vineyards and olive groves), as well as 850,000 m2 of the lake itself. The Reserve was established to preserve and promote the ecosystem and landscape, historical and archeological sites, as well as to support such activities as education and understanding, preservation and divulgation of a unique environment, remarkable for both its history and biodiversity. The Valtenesi Archeological Museum within the Reserve is the information centre for visitor who wish to understand why throughout history humans have chosen to settle in this spectacular setting. The Reserve is always open to the public.
