Moirago Lock and Waterkeeper's House

Highlight • Historical Site

The Conca di Moirago is one of the twelve basins of the Naviglio Pavese, a navigable canal that connects Milan to Pavia. The locks were a system of "steps" that allowed boats to overcome the difference in level of the canal. Each basin had its own keeper, who operated the mechanism and controlled its functioning. The building of the "Guardian of the waters" today is a museum that houses an exhibition that tells the story of the place.

Naviglio Pavese Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The Naviglio Pavese cycle path is a cycle/pedestrian path that runs for about 35 km, connecting Milan to the municipality of Pavia. The route follows the bank of the Naviglio Pavese, an artificial canal built in the 16th century for the transport of goods.

The cycle path offers a beautiful landscape, with views of the fields, villages and ancient locks along the canal. It is very popular with both cyclists and pedestrians, being completely separated from vehicular traffic.

Some points of interest along the cycle path include:

- Parco Agricolo Sud Milano: the start of the route is located within this large natural park south of Milan.
- Chiaravalle Abbey: important monastic complex from the 12th century.
- City of Binasco: characteristic village with a well-preserved historic center.
- City of Pavia: the cycle path ends in the historic center of this city of art.

The cycle path is paved and well signposted, with several rest areas and refreshment points along the route. It is accessible from several points in Milan and represents an excellent opportunity for a bike trip outside the city.

Naviglio Pavese Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Like all the canals that cross Milan, this is also a particularly important waterway, because it connects two of the main Lombard cities: Pavia and Milan. The canals were very important communication routes at the time, comparable to modern railways, because they were able to move goods, but also people. In particular, this waterway ensured the transit of goods in Pavia and then allowed Milan to be connected through the Ticino and the Po to the sea. It is along its path that you can find the remains of the industrial period it was: first of all mills and spinning mills, but also evidence of the agricultural past of this area (farmhouses). All these things can still be observed along the cycle path that accompanies this canal, a very easy road suitable for any type of bike and body.

Cycling in and around the center of Milan is almost impossible due to the surface, traffic and tourism, so I pushed a few kilometers there until I finally went on an unusually beautiful track from Milan towards Pavia. At 7:30 p.m. during a short break, the decision was made to go to a campsite in front of Genoa to recover …

Classic path to do a little leg. Pay attention to the dangerous points for us cyclists: the Binasco roundabout and all the intersections / entrances with cars
