A unique place in Italy that enhances the territory and also takes on a European character for its peculiarities. Here we are talking about a truly exceptional facility: 14 pools of thermal water, including a long river of running water, 9 refreshment points, 3 bars immersed in water, 220 whirlpool stations, 5 wellness paths, a village with 3 large saunas and 5 sauna and Turkish bath cabins.
A water, that of the Policella Valley, where Aquardens is located, rich in minerals, including sodium, bromine, iodine as well as calcium, iron and magnesium, natural and microbiologically pure with many healing virtues: anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and anti-edemigenous for our body.
The largest thermal park in Italy, what is
We are just a few minutes from Verona and Lake Garda, a couple of hours from Milan. All in all doable even in a day. And we are at Aquardens. Surrounded by greenery, among the beauty of the hilly landscape of Valpolicella, this spa park is a jewel to be discovered. 5,200 square meters of indoor and outdoor pools with about 8,000 cubic meters of water. Aquardens is not simply a wellness center, it is a paradise where you can experience moments of intense pleasure and relaxation. In which to feel good and regenerate.
Where the park now stands, peach plants were once grown. As told by one of the Zuliani brothers, the founders, by pure chance noticed the spring under this land and decided to invest, giving birth to this Eden on earth. The water gushes out at 47 degrees, however, depending on the season you can find it between 30 and 40 degrees.
But what makes Aquardens special, in addition to the pools, is the sauna village, among the largest in Italy with a rich offering. Between the panoramic one, the Aufguss (this is a large sauna to be done in groups inspired by the most significant international sauna traditions), the Celtic and the Russian Banya scented with spruce, there is something for everyone. And it is in the Aufguss that one can witness shows and sets where passionate Aufgussmeisters, sauna masters, with scenic rhythmic movements of cloths and accompanied by music, direct the hot vapors of natural essential oils heated by braziers.
