Beautiful simple roads for mtb and gravel, the city side winds up to the Golf Club then goes up on asphalt, the city side winds up to Bereguardo all on a dirt road along the river

View of the Coperto Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

Rebuilt in the mid-fourteenth century to replace the old Roman bridge (whose pillars can still be seen), it connects the historic center of the city with the picturesque medieval village beyond the Ticino, a traditional town of washerwomen, gravel diggers and fishermen. Its feature, which makes it the evocative symbol of Pavia, is its roofing, commissioned by Galeazzo II Visconti in the aftermath of the conquest of the city, and the presence of an eighteenth-century chapel, dedicated to St. John of Nepomuk. Bombed in World War II, the bridge was rebuilt in the early 1950s.

Covered Bridge (Pavia)

Highlight • Bridge

The Covered Bridge, also known as Ponte Vecchio, crosses the Ticino River and connects the historic center of Pavia with the characteristic Borgo Ticino district, originally located outside the peripheral walls of the city. The neighborhood was traditionally inhabited by washermen, scree workers and fishermen.

The bridge, symbol of Pavia, is particular, with its five arches, entirely covered by a structure, and equipped with two portals at its ends. Also, there is a small chapel in the middle of the bridge.

The current Ponte Coperto was built between 1949 and 1951 and reflects the characteristics of the ancient Ponte Coperto dating back to the 14th century, which in turn had replaced the ancient Roman bridge (whose columns are still visible today).

Confluence of the Naviglio Pavese with the Fiume Ticino: The Naviglio Pavese is one of the canals that are part of the Navigli system in Lombardy. Once navigable, it stretches for 33 kilometers and connects the city of Milan to Pavia, and through a series of six locks to the River Ticino.

Casa Stranissima, Torre de' Negri

Highlight • Structure

In the small town of Torre de' Negri, located in the Pavia region, there is a remarkable house called Casa Stranissima. This house seems straight out of a fairytale amusement park, with a picturesque and curious appearance. Unfortunately, little information is available about this mysterious house.

Church of San Giacomo della Cerreta

Highlight • Religious Site

In the countryside between Belgioioso and the river Po, near the hamlet of San Giacomo della Cerreta stands the small church of San Giacomo, a destination for pilgrims because it is located on the ancient route of the Via Francigena, to which its name refers to another of the destinations of medieval pilgrims: Santiago de Compostella in Spain. In the past, near San Giacomo della Cerreta, there was the small settlement of Porcaria, whose name refers to the breeding of pigs, documented from the twelfth century and disappeared in the fourteenth century. The church is of Lombard art from the first half of the fifteenth century, it has a single room, entirely painted with votive paintings related to pilgrimages. In addition to the Madonna, Saint Roch and Saint James are repeatedly depicted, both in the guise of pilgrims, carrying a stick and a saddlebag. In the images of St. James, the characteristic shell that pilgrims collected at Cape Finisterre, on the beaches of the Atlantic Ocean, has been added as a sign and reminder of the journey made.
