Monte Urpinu Park is not so far from the city centre. It represents one of the main destinations for families with children, ideal for a picnic, a stroll among pines and lakes, and it’s also a suitable place for physical outdoor activities. Inside the park there are various species of flora, fauna and man-made lakes inhabited by swans and turtles. It is also possible to see beautiful specimens of peacocks. The main entrance is in Via Pietro Leo, while other accesses are located in Viale Europa and via Vidal, where is also situated Cagliari’s Tennis Club. The park, which originally took the name of Monte Volpino, it was later renamed Monte Urpinu, according to the translation in Sardinian dialect of the word "fox", because in the past the area has always been inhabited by foxes and other wildlife. The car access is always open, while the pedestrian park is open all day all year round. Opening times are variable depending on the season.

Monte Claro is one of the public parks of Cagliari, it covers several hectares, and is located in the city center. The main entrance is in via Cadello, another entrance is in Via Liguria. Inside the park there are play facilities, a pond and some species of birds such as geese and ducks and several turtles. It is a favorite destination for families with children and a place of recreation for adults. Many Cagliari citizens  go outdoor to take some exercise, because Monte Claro Park offers ideal paths for walking and jogging. In summer it guests various cultural and entertainment events. On the top of the hill, was located the magnificent Villa Clara, also known as Villa Ghiani, from the name of its first owner. Monte Claro hill was also chosen for the construction inside Villa Clara of a new psychiatric hospital, of which since 1978 the Italian Government wanted to change the intended use, after the abolition of psychiatric hospitals. In 1998 the last patients left the center  of Villa Clara. Nowadays it guests  the Provincial Library Emilio Lussu.

A dog area has been inaugurated in June 2017. Located next to the sports fields, it is enclosed to let the dog run without leash under the eyes of their owners and is divided into two sectors: one for small sized dogs (3.000 square metres wide) and the other for large sized dogs (2.500 metres wide).

It is a very quiet and peaceful park, also given its location very close to a place of worship and the Bonaria Monumental Cemetery, with low walls, fountains and shaded areas throughout the park. From the highest point of the hill, it is possible to enjoy a sensational panoramic view over most of the city of Cagliari and the nearby port. The conformation of the park is mainly sloping.

The main trees of the park are ficus, holm oaks, carob trees, palm trees and other aromatic plant bushes. There is no shortage of flower beds.

The park is dedicated to the fallen of the First World War and was built like the others "remembrance groves" installed in many municipalities in the rest of Italy as well from 1923 onwards. Each tree resembles a fallen soldier from the First World War. It was built in 1935 on a project by the architect Ubaldo Badas, then assistant engineer in the Municipality's Technical Office.

The layout of the monument has a sober taste, unlike many others, and it consists of two beams formed by a granite base and alternating rows of trachyte and Serrenti’s stone on which are reported the dates and names of the most important battles of the great war. The exedra in white limestone and red trachyte (to recall the insignia of the Sassari Brigade) on whose structure the names of the fallen are reported is in the center between the two bundles.

The fence is made of metal spheres and limestone stones, joined by chains.

The area between the Opera Theatre and the T-Hotel is embellished by a five hectares wide urban garden.

Designed in a modern architectonic style, the Park is also a beautiful square with an artificial river, wooden platforms, fountains, music and a marble pavement.

Its strategic position, very close to the historical centre, but also to the Opera Theatre and to the Auditorium of the Music Conservatory, makes the Music Park one of the most appreciated public spaces in town all the year round, and a perfect setting for events.

The Park of the Rings is a green area of ​​45,000 square meters overlooking the seafront of the Sant'Elia district.

The park has been built over an area of ​​twenty-two hectares, which in the past appeared uncultivated and in a state of deterioration.

The preliminary design of the Park of the Rings was conceived by the Portuguese landscape architect João Nunes. The first lot occupies an area of more than four hectares. In the coming moths, a design team will prepare the final/executive project that will allow for the continuation of the works on the remaining eighteen hectares.

The first part of the park contains many interesting elements:

- a new space for outdoor cultural events, which will host theatrical, musical, film, literary and dance events in a setting of poignant beauty;

- the creation of a system of green beaches, which will offer an original alternative to traditional sandy beaches;

- the safeguard of the natural elements, such as the rocky hill and its rich Mediterranean maquis;

- the protection of the Gallery/refuge of the Lazzaretto, an ancient hypogeum seat of a monastic community, more recently used as a bomb shelter during the Second World War;

- the preparation of paths dedicated to pedestrians and cyclists;

- the reorganization of the spaces dedicated to the local street market.
