Mantova

Along the shores of Mantua’s lakes we find the Periurban Park, which is the green lung of the city. This forest, inaugurated in 1995, spans three lakefronts – Upper, Lower and Middle – from which the entire city can be seen. Today it is a popular space for nature lovers, thanks to its kiosks, picnic areas, health trails and bike paths.

Why adopt a tree here?

The forest located along Middle Lake represents a part of this park that continues to grow through new improvements. Crisscrossed by a system of bicycle and pedestrian paths, it is a popular space for citizens who come here to play sports, take walks and enjoy nature. Thanks to WOWnature, you now have the opportunity to contribute to the growth of this forest by adopting a tree. Choosing to adopt a tree in Mantua means leaving a positive mark on one of Italy’s UNESCO World Heritage cities. By planting new trees in the city, it helps to improve air quality by absorbing CO2 and reducing particulate matter and to have milder temperatures. It also creates new habitats for local wildlife, increasing biodiversity and making the city more resilient to climate change. A regenerated green area, such as the Peri-urban Park, becomes a space of sociality and well-being for those who live there, providing a safe and welcoming place to walk, play sports or relax.
