Botanical Treasure Hunt Great Italian Gardens 2024

On Easter Monday the appointment with the wonderful world of the gardens, signed by Grandi Giardini Italiani, comes back.

Now in its 27th edition, the Botanical Treasure Hunt Great Italian Gardens is the event dedicated to school-age children (6-10 years old) to bring them closer in a playful and joyful way to the immense botanical, artistic and cultural heritage preserved in the gardens of the circuit. There are 40 Great Gardens that have joined the initiative this year, confirming a growing interest in environmental education themes for the younger generations.

At the entrance to the gardens, participants will receive a map with which to play the game. Thanks to the questions asked during the treasure hunt, children will be stimulated to understand the main characteristics of plant life and the historical and artistic curiosities of the gardens. Children who complete the route will receive the Little Botanist certificate Grandi Giardini Italiani.
