From the Lyon World / Places

Parc de la Tête d'Or

Lyon's largest urban park combines a broad lake, mature landscape, lawns and botanical collections within an easy escape from dense central streets.

Parc de la Tête d'Or

Why go

The park earns time for its scale and variety rather than one monument. You can circle the lake, rest under old trees or connect the landscape with the botanical garden. It suits families and slower days, though covering every section can turn a gentle visit into a long walk.

What to look for

  • The seventeen-hectare lake
  • Century-old trees and broad lawns
  • Botanical collections within the park

Useful to know

  • Choose one section if you have less than two hours.
  • Check seasonal gate and facility times before an early or late visit.
