The urban River Park, located just a few steps away from the town center, is an oasis of peace and beauty, waiting to be explored. It features lush vegetation, waterfalls, adventurous crossings, and stretches of water with a characteristic blue color.
An expert guide will accompany you along the river path. Along the way, the guide will point out local animal and plant species, highlight the trail’s most scenic viewpoints, and share the story of the river and its connection to the city’s history.
