Tour Information
The Garden can be visited from April 1 to November 2 every day of the week and with morning and afternoon opening hours (last access no later than 45 minutes before closing time).
Admission, for a fee, does not require reservations. Tickets can be purchased at the Garden’s box office during its opening hours or through the convenient online ticket service active within this website.
Purchase of the online ticket entitles you to admission throughout the selected opening day, upon presentation of the confirmation voucher received via e-mail. If not used, the online ticket will not be refunded but can be rescheduled for another date.
The visit lasts about 1 hour and 30 minutes and is supported by audio guide, in Italian and English, easily downloadable to your smartphone.
Since both garden and between the quarries there is no guaranteed constant connection for telephone, internet and wi-fi networks, it is recommended to save the audio guide on your cell phone by downloading it.
At the entrance to the park there is a small parking area for bicycles and mopeds, as well as a small parking area for cars.
In the immediate vicinity of the box office, on the other hand, there is a covered relaxation area, equipped with lounges and a refreshment point (automatic beverage dispenser).
The Garden is almost entirely passable by wheelchairs and baby carriages while still paying close attention to protruding roots, stones, low branches or anything else.
In order to respect and preserve the beauty and cleanliness of the Garden, we remind you that it is strictly forbidden to damage flora (detach leaves, flowers and twigs) and fauna, introduce food or stray from the group during the visit.
Dogs are allowed as long as they are on a leash (max length 1.5m) and with bags for droppings.
Where practicable, the visit is guaranteed even in light rain.
The Garden does not have a wheelchair rental service.
The cultural garden tourism activity at the Garden of the Impossible is conducted through guided tours lasting about 1h 30min, with two modes of execution.
The first, available for day visitors, involves an autonomous tour conducted with the use of a handy audio guide to download to your smartphone, thanks to the directions provided by the reception staff located in the box office area. It is therefore suggested to arrive at the Garden with a sufficiently charged cell phone battery, such that the tour can be followed more easily. A succession of voice tracks, numerically progressive, proceeds to describe the main points of interest of the site. A system of orange indicator arrows, directs the guest during the tour route by signaling, by means of a number reproduced on them, the point of interest to be reached and of which to listen to the description through the corresponding voice track.
Some talking panels, placed at key points, display a general plan of the park. They also display an outline of the route with all listening points located and numbered to allow one's current location both within the park and with respect to the route taken and/or yet to be taken.
The cultural garden tourism activity at the Giardino dell'Impossibile is developed through guided tours lasting 1h and 30min. approximately, with two execution modes that alternate based on the chosen day and time of entry.
The first form of visit consists of a tour of the park traditionally conducted by tourist "escorts" with admission at set times and by reservation (by phone or email at: info@giardinodellimpossibile.it).
The second method is the "autonomous" visit with the use of an audio guide. In this case, the entrance time for the visit is extended to a period of about four hours and access to the park is still subject to a request/booking by telephone or via online ticket on the dedicated page on the website: www.giardinodelimpossibile.it . Once the dedicated audio guide has been downloaded on cecculare thanks to the QR code provided at the reception box office, the visit proceeds autonomously accompanied, in the narration, by a numbered succession of vocal tracks to illustrate the main points of interest of the place. The aid of indicator arrows, orange in colour, allow you to orient yourself along the visit route and signal, by means of a number reproduced on them, the next point of interest to reach and whose description to listen to through the corresponding vocal track, in progression .
The "talking panels" positioned in key points, display the plan of the park system which shows the layout of the visit itinerary with all the listening points numbered and located, allowing the visitor to know where they are both in the park than with respect to the path taken and/or still to be undertaken.
With the fee paid by each visitor , the owners of Giardino dell’Impossibile provide for its own maintenance and valorization.
