Sobre
Fatos rápidos: Winding parkland mixes riverside meadows, manicured gardens, and shaded woodland where unexpected sculptures and stately old houses peek through the trees. You can wander miles of paths and promenades that link picnic fields, quiet canals, and bike lanes, often sharing the trail with joggers, kayakers, and birdwatchers.
Destaques: Mist curls off the river and the air fills with tactile sounds: oars ticking the water, a distant train horn, and the clatter of multiple sculls launching from stone boathouses. Local crews keep a quirky habit of carving initials and dates into wooden oars, so close inspection reveals tiny names and stories on paddles bobbing at sunrise.
