A great walk or bike ride around the city walls. Visit Lucca, and take the time to do this. More

Definitely worth doing - about 3miles around, easy cycling, peaceful & lovely way to spend a few hrs, stopping every now and then to dip down into the city. More

La Mura di Lucca. The wall of Lucca. It's a relaxing and energetic way of spending a few hours. One rides bikes round and round the 1.5 mile course. Many people also riding/walking. Very pleasant. To the inside of the wall, one can see the city towers and palazzos. To the outside of the wall, one can see the mountains... More

Lucca has done a wonderful job preserving the walls, made the top a walking/bicycling path. I understand they drove cars on the wall until a few years ago. Pack a lunch, take your time, and enjoy the views! More

It is very easy to walk or ride a bike on the wide ramparts around Lucca. Lots of people, including groups of school children and mothers with strollers meander on the walls. You can easily get off and go into the city to visit sites at various points. More

The ramparts around Lucca are well utilized by walkers, bikers, joggers, people with baby carriages and people having picnis. There are lovely views of the city and the hills in the distance where there are beautiful villas. There are entry ways at various places along the ramparts, so you can walk the entire distance or just a small portion of... More

A great way to spend a pleasant afternoon! We rented bikes at Ciccli Rai, where the service was friendly and helpful. Easy, flat ride with no automobiles, but lots of walkers and other bicyclists that you sometimes need to dodge. More

Hire a bike, walk, run or do all three - but you must walk the walls of Lucca - try a Sunday when all the locals are out with their families - parades, performers, stalls, cafes, gardens - it is wonderful hady mixture of delightful experiences. More
