Situated near the village of San Felice, with an idyllic setting amongst fragrant groves of citrus, olive and fig trees.

Located on the western shores of Lake Garda, Europa Silvella is a modern parc just five miles from the medieval town of Salò. There is a steep path down to the lakeside beach but here you can enjoy lovely views across the lake to the vast mountains beyond. Magnolia, oak and olive trees line the shady paths and provide some shade for the medium-size pitches. The superb swimming pool area is the focal point for children’s entertainment during high season where discos and activities are arranged.
