View of the Ticino River

Highlight • Viewpoint

Attention: the part of the path that ran along the river was taken away by the flood but, passing a few meters inside, a new path is already forming.

September 30, 2023,Giro in MTB: bagnetto al Ticino nell'ottobrata 2023.

September 30th: clear sky, you look at the thermometer at 2.15pm... 28°, you look at the bike and immediately the idea of a swim in Ticino in October comes to mind... No sooner said than done! Very short but fun tour, swimming and sun in October... Incredible!

Circular tour from Vizzola to Castelnovate to be repeated several times if you want to "make time". They have finally cut down the fallen trees and the paths are now accessible. However, pay attention to the points we have highlighted, the passage is narrow and if you arrive at full speed.... Ouch!

The tour was supposed to be different (Panperduto and return from the Piedmont side) but due to problems with the gear shift of a MTB we had to shorten and return. Obviously we enjoyed a relaxing break in the sun and then "cut" and return much earlier than expected. Lots of rocks on the trails, you dance a bit but …
