Parc de Parilly (solo trip)

Hidden gem and underrated attraction in Lyon despite being such a huge park, perfect for jogging, walking and sport activities! Avoid the crowd and touristic visitors, if you are looking for a peaceful and science park for exercise or relaxing with moderately hilly tracks and naturally preserved landscapes.

Huge public park with loads of sporting facilities such as basketball fields, running tracks/trails and calisthenics parks. Public toilets with clean drinking fountains are also available.

Great park! Plenty of spaces to wonder around, run or bike. There’s a hippodrome and certain races could be watch for free from the opposite side from entrance.

The greatest park in Lyon, and a real escape to nature: huge, properly maintained, and clean. You will find there a lot of basket courts, football (soccer) fields, mini_foot, handball , volleyball (but no fillet), rugby/american football, cricket, running trackfield, and many other athletic facilities and ranges for those who seek it. Very enjoyable place with many parkings, you can go alone, with...

Huge park, forest within the city. Neat, well-kept, a variety of sports fields. Lack of playground facilities for small children. Large spaces for cycling, running, family walking. Lots of seating benches and picnic spots. clean and tidy.
