Serchio River Park • Lucca

The park on the river Serchio has several recreational activities, including soccer fields and a bocce area, runways for model airplanes and tracks for model cars, as well as archery, and skateboarding areas. The ideal entrance of the Park is the Guglielmo Petroni terrace, dedicated to the Luccan writer. The Park offers three different itineraries: the natural, the water, and the historic route. The natural route follows two banks: one goes for about 11 km from Ponte S. Quirico and Ponte S. Pietro, and the other for about 11 km from Ponte S. Quirico to Ponte a Moriano. The first route is inside the Urban Park, between the histonc center and the river, connecting the urbanized areas in the city outskirts on the left bank of the river with the farmlands on the right bank.
