ピアチェンツァのおすすめツーリングルート

ヴァルトレッビアで最も景色の良い場所の一つ。

トレッビア川の岸辺はトレッビア渓谷で最も美しい要素の一つであり、特にピアチェンツァとリグーリア・エミリアン・アペニン山脈の間の区間では、川が砂利浜、岩壁、そして非常に手つかずの緑地を交互に繰り返しています。

トレッビア川の湾曲部（蛇行とも呼ばれる）は、トレッビア渓谷、特にボッビオ、ブルグネッロ、マルサリア間のアペニン山脈区間に川が形成する大きなカーブです。

ロマンチックで、誰にでも適しています。

スカパリーナ峠（1108m）は、スタッフォラ谷とトレッビア谷の間に位置し、特にペニーチェ峠に向かう際には素晴らしいパノラマビューを提供します。

ボッビオの「悪魔の橋」としても知られるポンテ・ゴッボは、11の不規則なアーチを持つ長さ273メートルの　中世の橋で、トレッビア川にかかっています。伝説によると、悪魔が最初の通行人の魂と引き換えに一晩で橋を架けたとされていますが、サン・コロンバーノが動物を先に渡らせて悪魔を欺いたと言われています。

A wonderful stop. Both the church and the baptistery were open, and we were able to enter for a visit. It's worth a detour if you're in the area.

Hunchback Bridge or Devil's Bridge In the Middle Ages, the construction of a bridge was considered a miraculous feat. For this reason, the construction of such structures gave rise to many legends, often involving the devil: joining two places that God had wanted separated was seen by many as a "diabolical" work. According to an ancient legend, Saint Columbanus, a 7th-century Irish monk, was eager to bring the word of God to the people living on the other bank of the Trebbia River, near the town of Bobbio. The devil promised to build the bridge in a single night, in exchange for the first mortal soul to cross it. The saint accepted. That night, the devil summoned several little devils who assisted him in the construction work, holding up the bridge's arches. The demons were of different heights, and thus the various arches of the bridge were of varying sizes. In the morning, the devil stationed himself at the end of the bridge to demand his payment. But Saint Columbanus outwitted him by having his poor, suffering and very sick dog (some say it was a bear) cross the bridge instead of a man. The enraged devil returned to hell, but not before kicking his handiwork, which has been crooked ever since. It is said that the footprints of the unfortunate animal that served as a guinea pig still remain in the crypt of the Church of Saint Columbanus. The Hunchback Bridge, also known as the Ponte Vecchio or, more precisely, the Devil's Bridge, is a Roman structure that has undergone numerous renovations over the centuries. The structure above dates back to the 7th century, but traces of an older bridge, dating back to before Columbanus' arrival, have been found underneath. The bridge, characterized by its undulating shape, irregular arches, and relatively narrow carriageway, is 280 meters long and connects the two banks of the river through a complicated succession of 11 irregular spans, varying in span and height, creating an undulating path from one end to the other. The Bobbio Bridge, now used only as a pedestrian crossing, is the very symbol of the city of San Colombano, as well as one of the strangest and most original architectural structures in Italy.
