Walk or cycle through Parco delle Cascine, Florence's big riverside park beside the Arno. Follow wide car-free avenues past historic monuments, joining local runners and cyclists as the river flows alongside.
Full description
Parco delle Cascine stretches along the Arno on the western edge of the centre, with wide car-free boulevards, historical monuments and open views of the river. Locals treat it as the city's main place for sport, with runners and cyclists using the long avenues daily.
Reviewers describe it as clean, safe and ideal for a calm walk in nature, and the path continues further west along the river. It is open around the clock, and a 75-minute visit covers a good stretch.
