Overview

Parco delle Terme di Comano is a 14-hectare historic botanical park situated at the foot of the Brenta Dolomites in Trentino, Italy. It serves as the surrounding green space for the Comano Thermal Spa, known for its unique bicarbonate-calcium-magnesium waters. The landscape features diverse native tree species, including centuries-old sequoias, oaks, and beeches. A network of walking paths winds through manicured lawns, meadows, and along the Sarca River. The park is integrated into the Adamello Brenta Nature Park, providing a transition zone between the village of Ponte Arche and protected alpine wilderness. Visitors can access mineral water springs directly within the park grounds. The area is specifically managed to promote wellness, respiratory health, and physical therapy recovery. It remains a focal point for local eco-tourism and outdoor relaxation in the Giudicarie Valleys.

Insider tips

Bring a reusable water bottle to fill directly from the designated thermal spring taps.

Follow the designated 'Path of Health' signage for a moderate trail that highlights local botany.

The park is significantly cooler than the surrounding valleys due to the dense tree canopy, so bring a light layer even in mid-summer.

What to avoid

Do not attempt to swim in the Sarca River, as the currents and temperature are often unpredictable.

Good to know

The park is fully accessible during the spa season; some peripheral paths may be restricted during winter months due to snowfall.

Etiquette

Respect the 'quiet area' zones near the thermal buildings and keep dogs on a leash at all times.
