Head out to Idroscalo, Milan's big lakeside park, for space and fresh air away from the centre. Walk or cycle the flat loop around the water, and stop at the playgrounds or restaurants.
Full description
Idroscalo is a big park built around an artificial lake east of Milan, offering space for swimming, boating and fishing as well as a children's entertainment area. Its flat, well-kept loop around the water is popular with runners and cyclists, and reviewers point to restaurants, playgrounds and cycle lanes on site.
Visitors describe it as spacious and green enough that it hardly feels like part of the city. It is free to enter and open from early morning to evening, making it a flexible choice for a family outing or a longer walk.

this park genuinely feels unreal. it’s so spacious, peaceful, green and beautiful that if someone teleported me here, i would never guess i’m still in milan. feels like a little oasis hidden in the middle of the city
