Parco del Gianicolo

Gianicolo hill is a large park in Trastevere with ornate fountains, statues and fantastic views across the city. The hill isn't particularly steep, and a main road winds up to the viewpoint. The main issue as in much of Rome is either the lack of sidewalks, or the steep kerbs which accompany any that do exist. The road leading up to the main viewpoint from Via Garibaldi is wide and fairly quiet as it isn't by any means a main thoroughfare. We felt safe walking on the road, however not everyone may be comfortable with this. Once you reach the view point, it is a large pedestrianised square with a few stalls where you can buy a bottle of water.
