Laveggio, un fiume da vivere.
The Parco del Laveggio is located in the plain of Alto Mendrisiotto, where the river of the same name flows. In a heavily urbanised area, it links the remaining natural areas to offer a pedestrian path that stretches from the river's source in Stabio to its mouth in Riva San Vitale.
Easily accessible by public transport, the park is an ideal recreational area for walking or jogging close to home. The path runs along areas of naturalistic value and numerous points of cultural interest, which are indicated on the map. In order to deepen your knowledge, you can access the didactic contents by means of QR codes on the site.
The Laveggio Park remains a work in progress. Over the next few years, several important projects are planned that will affect it closely: the enhancement of the river between the pools and the mouth promoted by the Corsorzio arginature and the municipalities of Riva San Vitale and Mendrisio, the redevelopment of the Valera compartment by the Canton, and the continuation of the restoration of the ecological infrastructure coordinated by WWF Svizzera italiana.
Other, more specific initiatives will improve the experience for users. You too can participate by sharing your ideas, making a donation in favour of biodiversity and taking part in volunteer activities.
