Golferenzo is a village well worth the climb: small, well-kept, and surrounded by the hills of the Tidone Valley and the Alta Val Versa. Getting there by bike means pedaling through vineyards, along scenic roads, and with views that will make all your efforts worthwhile. If you enjoy cycling through nature and discovering authentic villages, make a note of this: it's a tour worth doing at least once.

Montalto Pavese stands in a dominant position on the first hills above Casteggio, the beautiful castle (one of the best preserved in the region) with its Italian garden and its wine production.

Village above Casteggio with two excellent restaurants and panoramic square

Vicobarone, of Roman origins, takes its name from a 'Vicus Varroni' of the imperial era and has been known as "Vici Baruni" since the year 833. Possession of the monastery of Bobbio and considered one of the first organized communities in the area, it expanded thanks to the numerous and important monastic cells of the Bobbio monastery, present in the area. The transformation of the castle dates back to the end of the seventeenth century, carried out by the Marquises Malvicini Fontana who made it an elegant residence with large and well-kept cellars. A final renovation was recently carried out by the current owners who adapted the building to accommodate tourists without altering its architectural characteristics and recovering the thousandth tower in which the "blade well" from the feudal era was located.

You arrive from Scuropasso, Casteggio or Oliva Gessi. Coming from Pavia, you go up from the Scuropasso valley, via Lirio and Finigeto. Nice climb, longer than the usual low hill climbs, about 6 km. Fairly regular, with a few short stretches of counterslope once you reach the coast. Overview. Very little traffic.

Cicognola offers a splendid castle and an equally interesting panoramic point on the hills of the Oltrepò Pavese. Stop in this small town for a break and to admire its beauties.
