Where to park during Fiorino Mud weekend

on start of

Firenze

The Fiorino Mud start and finish is at Società Canottieri Firenze, on the Arno river, right next to Ponte Vecchio: right in the historic centre, inside the ZTL (limited traffic zone). There’s no free parking near the venue itself, so here are the best options depending on how you’re arriving.

Free Parking

If you’re driving and not staying in the city centre, the easiest solution is to leave your car at one of the two free park-and-ride lots and reach the start by tram or by bike.

Ponte a Greve — Viale Nenni Park & Ride

Free, around 300 spaces

Take the A1 Firenze-Scandicci exit, then follow signs for Ponte a Greve

Tram T1, San Lorenzo a Greve stop → Santa Maria Novella in 15 minutes

Or ride it: 8 km · 25 minutes by bike straight to the start

Handy if you’re coming from the west / off the A1 motorway

Firenze Certosa

Free

Take the A1 Firenze-Impruneta exit, near the Certosa del Galluzzo

9 km · 30 minutes by bike to the start

Handy if you’re coming from the south (Siena / Rome)

Paid garages in the city centre

Open 24/7, fully automated: you keep your own keys
