Leisure
Conegliano is a rich industrial center where wealth is notable at every step. Leisure activities are therefore limited or costly and often require a car for freedom of movement.
The Monastery is not hosting a leisure centre. Anyway, students can find a swimming pool and gyms in town. Students need to go there independently, by car or by foot.
Swimming
“Ranazzurra” Leisure Centre: http://www.ranazzurra.it/conegliano.php. It is situated at 20 – 30 minute walking distance from the Monastery. Evening and late evening swimming hours and gym are also available inside the Centre.
