Not much shade with only a few leaves on the trees in mid March but it's clearly going to get better as we move in to Springtime. [Review 10670 overall, 438 of 2019.]

On a warm spring day, lots of people were out picnicking, some with their grills. Kids were playing and couples out for walks. Not at all like the large park in the middle of Milan, this is more open, more suburban. We hopped on the red line and exited at the Bonola station. Turning to our right, we made a U-turn and followed the bike path past the apartment buildings. Just past the apartments, we turned left and followed a foot path that runs parallel, directly to the park. There are plenty of paths for walking or bike riding. Lots of open spaces for sports or for spreading a blanket and enjoying the sun or a meal. A few trees dot the park as well offering an oasis from a hot sun. The 'little widow' water fountains dot the park as well so bring your empty water bottle to fill. A few porta-potties are also available for public use. There are a couple of places to buy a snack on the outskirts of the park Because the park in out of the metropolitan, inner area of Milan, it offers a quiet, pleasant expanse, to enjoy a day on the grass. Something that is lacking in the cobble stoned, city center, where we live.

The park has a number of lakes and Cascina Linterno is situated on it's south eastern corner. This area, away from the main city, is quiet with trails, paths and wild life. Kids playing soccer, families biking, couples in the grass, people on benches reading. It's a nice day wandering around the lakes, sitting in the shade or sun taking a break from life in the city.
