It's a beautiful park just about 15 min walk from the station along Lake Lugano. Just before entering make sure to buy some Gelato ice cream from a counter right outside the park.

The flowers are in bloom and it is beautiful to stroll through this park! The wisteria and azaelas are especially abundant and pretty. Many flowering trees. Nice paths to meander along.

I was fortunate to catch a sunny day on my last day in Lugano, so I took a stroll through the Parco Civico. Very nice! I also stopped off for some Gelato at the entrance of the park which made the experience all the more memorable.

I thought the park would be bigger but it was still very nice with beautiful flowers and a really nice view of the lake. It's also really close to the shopping area of the town so you won't have to walk far to see it.

We visit Parco Civico with our kids, great place to just walk around, take pictures, for children to ride a bike, scooter, and play in a nice playground. Loved it

Naturally beautiful, this park is filled with trees in springtime bloom. It makes for a nice stroll any time of day-- make sure to look out for swans, too!

Although not that big it was a good place to take the kids. There was a small swing set with a jungle gym and some nice open spaces. Being next to the lake also makes it very nice and a good place to take some panoramic pictures.

We were there in October, so not a good period for flowers etc., but found it very pretty and exceptionally well-maintained.
