★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A lovely walk on a sunny day with great views across the old city. Nice shaded avenues of trees, sculptures & small museums dotted along the 4.5km circular route. Very enjoyable.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The cities that display a whole ring of medieval/renascimental city walls are few. But those where you can actually ride a bike in the shade of trees are even less. Lucca: one in a billion.

An incredible place to visit. This is one of the few cities on earth still surrounded by a medieval wall. The top of the ramparts are filled with vegetation now where people enjoy taking a stroll. This place is a must to go visit. Only a 2 hours train ride through beautiful Tuscany from Rome and it is worth every minute. Best of all... it is FREE to walk around here and visit the city inside the walls. Such a peaceful yet lively place, it definitely takes you back through time as you walk around on top of these walls. The walls loop around the town of Lucca which makes for a very pleasant walk. Also it is a great place to take pictures fly your drone and capture the wall from above. I wish o would have had one back then. Either way I am sure you will enjoy this place of the planet. Highly recommended it. Follow me and my adventures @Sin_Aguayo_Canelito fb: Sin Aguayo

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Walls around Lucca are very beautiful. It is possible to walk on top of them and they are used by both bicyclists, scooters, runner and walkers. The entire circuit of the walls is around 4 kilometres, so a pretty nice walk or run.
For drivers entering the city centre, BE CAREFUL and avoid driving into the city through the walls. The entire city centre is a ZTL-zone (Zona a Traffico Limitato/Limited Traffic Area) and you will be fined if you enter. Park the car outside, there are plenty of parking areas around the city to choose from.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful, historical sight with many opportunities, like cycling, running, playground spots, or just for having a nice walk. The trees will give you shade, the area is wide.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An incredible place for a walk, jog or casual bike ride. The walls are from the medival period and are incredibly well preserved. There is a really nice and wide path all along the top. It is free of charge and totals a distance of roughly 2.5 miles or 4 kilometers. There are also several bars and restaurants along the path.
