Traveler reviews

  • Cristina Bianchi

    ★★★★8 years ago

    Parco nuovo, grande, con giochi di equilibrio e salti. Un grande scivolo con parete da arrampicata, un po' pericoloso x i bimbi più piccoli. Parcheggio gratuito di fronte al parco. Il grande limite è la mancanza di ombra: gli alberi, pochi e piccolini, sono lontani dai giochi, quindi soprattutto in estate il parco è troppo assolato.

    Un bel parco recentemente (agosto 2017) ampliato. Molti giochi originali e sicuri. Hanno messo anche la fontanella dell'acqua. Purtroppo mancano i servizi igienici e l'ombra è poca (gli alberi devono crescere un po')
