Days

Experience Milan beyond the usual tourist trail. Start at the enchanting fountain in Piazza Castello, then stroll through the leafy calm of Parco Sempione, where the city’s pace slows and its green heart comes alive.

Marvel at the grandeur of the Duomo, then step off the beaten path into Milan’s hidden corners—charming narrow streets and secret alleys where the city’s true character shines.

Follow the trail to Piazza Missori and the baroque beauty of Chiesa di Sant’Alessandro di Zebedia, before arriving at the lively Colonne di San Lorenzo. Take a moment of calm in Parco Giovanni Paolo II, letting the city’s rhythm wash over you, and finish at the historic Basilica di Sant’Eustorgio.

This 3 km walk is all about savoring the details, discovering the city like a local, and enjoying a relaxed pace with convenient stops for water and restrooms along the way.
