Spring transforms the world into a canvas of bright floral colors, and some gardens are the ultimate expression of this.
From Sigurtà Park in Italy, with its paths surrounded by spectacular blooms, to the famous Keukenhof in the Netherlands, each garden has its own unique beauty.
We cannot forget the wonderful flowery expanses of Castelluccio di Norcia and the Tuscan landscapes of the Val d’Orcia.
Here are 4 floral destinations to add to your RV trip during the spring season.
In spring, Val d’Orcia transforms into a rainbow of colors thanks to the flowering of wild mustard, wild tulips, sainfoin, rosehips, brooms and wild orchids. A recommended route to admire this wonder is path no. 8 which starts from San Quirico d’Orcia towards Pienza, offering around 7 km of breathtaking landscapes, where nature and history blend to create a unique experience.
Flowering in Castelluccio di Norcia is a spectacular natural event that occurs every year between the end of May and the beginning of July. This phenomenon transforms the Castelluccio Plain into a multicolored carpet of flowers, including poppies, gentians, daffodils and Castelluccio lentils, offering a breathtaking backdrop to visitors. This explosion of color attracts photographers, nature lovers and hikers from all over the world, eager to admire and immortalize the unique beauty of this landscape.
In spring, the Sigurtà Garden Park offers a unique experience with its vast flowering gardens. Among the main attractions are the Avenue of Roses, the Labyrinth, the Flower Ponds and the large Turf. For lovers of outdoor activities, bicycle routes, a children’s play area and train tours are available. An excursion to Sigurtà Park is ideal for those seeking relaxation among nature and breathtaking floral displays.
If you want to escape from Italy, we recommend Keukenhof in the Netherlands.
The ideal time to visit Keukenhof is between the end of March and mid-May, with peak flowering around mid-April. During this season, the park transforms into a sea of bright colors thanks to more than 7 million flower bulbs, including tulips, daffodils and hyacinths. The visit offers an unforgettable experience of natural beauty, walks through flower-filled paths and the chance to capture spectacular photographs.
Visitors can take guided tours, learn gardening techniques in specialized workshops, and immerse themselves in Dutch culture through thematic events. Every corner of the park offers a new discovery, making each visit an adventure full of beauty and knowledge.
