Aqueduct park of Rome - how to get thereThis place is one of my favourites in Rome and actually not that difficult to reach. A few years ago there was an excellent web page with instructions how to go there but unfortunately it has gone now. So I decided to make a crude version of my own.1.Take a metro to Giulio Agricola station2. Walk towards southwest along Viale Giulio Agricola. it’s possible that you have to cross a bigger street - Via Tuscolana - before you can do this. For example I had to do this and hence added the location of metro entrance/exit  into the map above.3. After circa 0,5 kilometer walk you willl see  the church of Parrochia San Policarpo in front of you. It’s a bit like a byzantine church and impossible to miss. From there turn to the left and walk along Via Lemonia. After a couple of hundred meters walk you’ll see the entrance to the park on the right, 4. After entering the park turn to left and follow the road  “Viale Appio Claudio” (map 2). You will reach  Aqua Claudia after a 5-10 minutes walk or so. 5. And finally one thing, if you go there during summer, it’s going to be hot …and I mean hot. So I strongly advice that you fill a couple of water bottles when leaving your hotel and buy some fruits and other refreshments before entering the park. I have marked the location of nearby supermarkets in maps above. Didn’t visit Conad but the supermarket on Viale Giulio Agricola was ok. And if you get really thirsty there was a tiny park with children’s play ground between Aqueduct park entrance and San Policarpo. At least  four years ago there was a water post in this park and they don’t usually remove them. As for the aqueduct park i didn’s see any big noses there. -- source link
