The hydraulic junction of the Tombe Morte-Tredici Ponti constitutes the most important concentration of artificial waterways in the province of Cremona, irrigating approximately 85,000 hectares of countryside. Here the Naviglio Civico di Cremona, the Naviglio Grande Pallavicino and the Canale Vacchelli intersect, the latter pouring almost all of its flow into the Naviglio Pallavicino, the Naviglio Civico and a dozen irrigation ditches through an impressive system of locks. Finally, a spillway, built between 1968 and 1981, detaches from the junction, which discharges any excess flow from the Naviglio Civico, the Naviglio Pallavicino and the Vacchelli into the Oglio river. Two different hypotheses have been made regarding the origin of the name, the first would originate from the term tomba which is synonymous with siphon, a hydraulic element that connects two conduits. Probably some of these artifacts would have fallen into disuse, hence the adjective death. Another hypothesis is linked to the discovery of several dozen burials dating back to the late Roman era.

The little bridge is placed above a point where the canal creates whirlpools of water, hence the name Gorgo del Pedagn

The intersection of these channels is very suggestive

The Pietro Vacchelli canal is an important hydraulic work from the late 1800s built by the Consorzio Irrigazioni Cremonesi to irrigate 80 thousand hectares of the Cremona countryside in the stretch between the Adda River and the Tombe Morte locality in Genivolta.

nice road great surface

Simple and well-maintained path without particular difficulties

Small deviation of the stretch adjacent to the canal. Picnic area quite large but I must say that during the visit I found a lot of dirt, perhaps because it was Monday and the workers had not yet cleaned the reserved area.

quiet ride for "pensioners"
