Villa Borghese — Galoppatoio
No reviews yet
Rome, RM, Lazio, Italy
Rome's best-known outdoor cruising area runs along the Galoppatoio, the old horse-riding track inside the vast Villa Borghese park. The wooded paths draw a steady crowd in the evenings and after dark, especially in the warmer months. Easy to reach on foot from Spagna or Flaminio metro. Public sexual activity is illegal in Italy, so stay discreet and respectful of other park users.
Getting there
The Galoppatoio sits inside Villa Borghese and is an easy walk from Spagna or Flaminio. Stay on the riding-track side rather than the museum gardens if you are looking for the evening paths.
When it's active
Evenings and after dark in the warmer months are when the wooded paths draw a crowd. Midday is a family park.
What to know
Public sexual activity is illegal in Italy. The park is shared with everyone else in central Rome, so discretion is the whole game.
