Once you have reached Piazza di San Rocco, and gone past the overpass on the highway, go west (table) to reach the entrance of the Botanical Garden “Bosco della Città”. This is a17-hectare area located on the Dosso di San Rocco (463m), served by a network of convenient paths, fountains and benches. The Trento-Sopramonte Forest Agency designed the area to enhance the forest characteristics with paths, tables and significant panoramic features. The ruins of the Fort S. Rocco (1880-1882) are located on the top of the mount, whereas at the entrance to the park there is a wildlife and wild bird reserve centre managed by LIPU (Italian Association for the Protection of Birds). 
The botanical park is spread over an area of 17 hectares, inserted in a larger portion of the forest, which measures over 100 hectares, located at the Dosso di San Rocco, on the slopes of the Marzola. The park stands out for the richness of native and exotic species, as well as for the panoramic points that offer an excellent view of the Adige valley. There is no shortage of easy-to-follow paths, drinking water fountains and benches placed at the edge of the manicured lawns, where you can enjoy a few moments of relaxation.
