Touring the region by bicycle means witnessing the countless destinations with a slow and sensorial approach. Don’t forget about the incredible views to be had along the road.

Bicycle Touring in Lombardy. The 10 itineraries presented here represent a selection of stretches on longer paths to collect not just kilometres, but true and authentic experiences. Pedal along the plains of the agricultural south that sweep around the rising altitudes in the Alps. Get off the beaten-path so to speak, following Einstein’s route as a student through the Ticino Park that leads to Pavia.

Along the Mincio Bicycle Path, connecting Lake Garda to the great River Po, there’s a special Renaissance air to breathe in. Meanwhile, the Oglio Bicycle Path takes off from Ponte di Legno in Brescia to reach the plains, bringing it with the traces of ancient glaciers. The banks of the Adda River are sure to please with great examples of industrial archeology. Along the vineyards of Franciacorta, there are plenty of locations to stop and smell the roses, as well as wines.

Explore the mountains as well as the charming villages and the hairpin turns of the champions along the Navigli, just as Leonardo Da Vinci once did. Thanks to the countless routes immortalized by cycling legends throughout history, Lombardy is the only place to visit a Bicycle Museum protected by the saint of the cyclists.
