Practical notes

Allow about half a day for Borghese and the park, plus roughly two hours and a break for Galleria Nazionale. The outdoor walk is about 1.5–2 km, depending on the route.

This self-guided walk does not reserve admission. Galleria Nazionale’s same-day concession does not include evening re-entry.
