Parks and Gardens

Lucca offers more than just history and art; you can also relax by exploring nature trails, on foot or by bicycle, discovering the beautiful green spaces surrounding it.  

A long trail through water and urban woodlands, from the Serchio River Park in the north to the Aqueduct Park in the south, all the way to the "Parole d'oro" (Golden Words). A path that combines nature and history, passing through the green ring of the Renaissance Walls.
