About Parco Forlanini#
Parco Forlanini is a large urban green area on the eastern side of Milan. It provides open space, tree-lined avenues and paths used for walking, jogging and informal sport.
The park contains long linear paths and wooded sections that are popular with local residents for exercise and leisure rather than formal horticultural collections. Facilities and routes accommodate running, cycling and dog walking.
Green areas were laid out as part of 20th-century urban planning to provide a substantial public park east of Milan’s central districts.
The park sits in the eastern suburbs of Milan, adjacent to Linate Airport and the city’s transport links, forming a major green belt on the city edge.
