Valentine Park is free to visit, as are many attractions within the park, such as the Castello del Valentino (as long as you reserve your tour in advance). Turin walking and bike tours also visit the park, along with heavy hitters including Piazza San Carlo and the Mole Antonelliana; prices generally range from US$30 to US$100 per person.

Valentine Park is located in Turin’s San Salvario neighborhood and stretches north to south along the Po River from Ponte Umberto I to Ponte Isabella. It takes about 20 minutes to walk there from the Porta Nuova train station, and you can also reach it by taking the 16 tram line, which starts near the Royal Palace.

The park’s highlights are the Castello del Valentino—the former royal residence of the House of Savoy and now the architecture building of the Polytechnic University of Turin—and a stunning reproduction of a medieval village called Borgo Medievale (closed until mid-2026). Don’t miss the park’s many trails, fountains, and statues, plus a university botanical garden.

While there are no bike rental facilities within the park, there are several nearby. For a simpler way to go, you can join a bicycle or e-bike tour of Turin. You’ll be able to cover more ground in the vast park on wheels, and your guide will also point out the city’s stately squares, palaces, and other must-sees.

Yes, there are casual cafés scattered throughout Valentine Park selling pastries, sandwiches, and some hot food options. For a more substantial meal with a view, head to one of the restaurants on the east side of the park along the Po River. Or, do as the locals do and pack a picnic, then relax with lunch on one of the many lawns.
