The cyclepaths along the canals are boring. Try to follow the E1 on the riverbank; much more interesting!

At some point you can walk a few kilometers on a gravel path which is on a low dike between two canals. This gravel path starts at a footbridge near a lock (where exactly?) and you have to leave this gravel path at the bridge that is on this photo.

Abbiategrasso

Abbiategrasso

The regional road S 494 from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano is extremely dangerous: narrow and a lot of truck traffic. On the old Ponte di Vigevano there is no space for cyclists and pedestrians. (Just a 30 cm wide space between the balustrade and the crash barrier.) An elegant new bridge is under contruction . . . When will that new bridge open? And will it be accessible for pedestrians?

In the meantime your best option is to travel by train from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano.

Vigevago has a beautiful city centre. Leonardo da Vinci lived here for twenty years and he designed for Vigevano the “perfect market square” and a castle. He also designed ingenious irrigation canals.

The 25 km between Vigevano and Zerbolo there are actually NO shops, NO restaurants, NO hostels. You are on your own here.

Follow the signs of European long distance path E1. Go left, Via Aguzzafame. Go strait on, into a wood. After 150 (?) meter the E1 turns to the right. Here you have the option to first visit the small yacht-basin Ayala. Ayala has NO restaurant but it offers a group of picknick tables covered by a roof.

The cyclepaths along the canals are boring. Try to follow the E1 on the riverbank; much more interesting!

At some point you can walk a few kilometers on a gravel path which is on a low dike between two canals. This gravel path starts at a footbridge near a lock (where exactly?) and you have to leave this gravel path at the bridge that is on this photo.

Abbiategrasso

Abbiategrasso

The regional road S 494 from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano is extremely dangerous: narrow and a lot of truck traffic. On the old Ponte di Vigevano there is no space for cyclists and pedestrians. (Just a 30 cm wide space between the balustrade and the crash barrier.) An elegant new bridge is under contruction . . . When will that new bridge open? And will it be accessible for pedestrians?

In the meantime your best option is to travel by train from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano.

Vigevago has a beautiful city centre. Leonardo da Vinci lived here for twenty years and he designed for Vigevano the “perfect market square” and a castle. He also designed ingenious irrigation canals.

Follow the signs of European long distance path E1. Go left, Via Aguzzafame. Go strait on, into a wood. After 150 (?) meter the E1 turns to the right. Here you have the option to first visit the small yacht-basin Ayala. Ayala has NO restaurant but it offers a group of picknick tables covered by a roof.

Abbiategrasso

Abbiategrasso

The regional road S 494 from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano is extremely dangerous: narrow and a lot of truck traffic. On the old Ponte di Vigevano there is no space for cyclists and pedestrians. (Just a 30 cm wide space between the balustrade and the crash barrier.) An elegant new bridge is under contruction . . . When will that new bridge open? And will it be accessible for pedestrians?

In the meantime your best option is to travel by train from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano.

Vigevago has a beautiful city centre. Leonardo da Vinci lived here for twenty years and he designed for Vigevano the “perfect market square” and a castle. He also designed ingenious irrigation canals.

Follow the signs of European long distance path E1. Go left, Via Aguzzafame. Go strait on, into a wood. After 150 (?) meter the E1 turns to the right. Here you have the option to first visit the small yacht-basin Ayala. Ayala has NO restaurant but it offers a group of picknick tables covered by a roof.

Abbiategrasso

The regional road S 494 from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano is extremely dangerous: narrow and a lot of truck traffic. On the old Ponte di Vigevano there is no space for cyclists and pedestrians. (Just a 30 cm wide space between the balustrade and the crash barrier.) An elegant new bridge is under contruction . . . When will that new bridge open? And will it be accessible for pedestrians?

In the meantime your best option is to travel by train from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano.

Vigevago has a beautiful city centre. Leonardo da Vinci lived here for twenty years and he designed for Vigevano the “perfect market square” and a castle. He also designed ingenious irrigation canals.

Santuario Madonna delle Bozzola This is the most important religious place near Vigivano ? Where ?

Follow the signs of European long distance path E1. Go left, Via Aguzzafame. Go strait on, into a wood. After 150 (?) meter the E1 turns to the right.

In the meantime your best option is to travel by train from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano.

Vigevago has a beautiful city centre. Leonardo da Vinci lived here for twenty years and he designed for Vigevano the “perfect market square” and a castle. He also designed ingenious irrigation canals.

Abbiategrasso

The regional road S 494 from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano is extremely dangerous: narrow and a lot of truck traffic. On the old Ponte di Vigevano there is no space for cyclists and pedestrians. (Just a 30 cm wide space between the balustrade and the crash barrier.) An elegant new bridge is under contruction . . . When will that new bridge open? And will it be accessible for pedestrians?

In the meantime your best option is to travel by train from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano.

Vigevago has a beautiful city centre. Leonardo da Vinci lived here for twenty years and he designed for Vigevano the “perfect market square” and a castle. He also designed ingenious irrigation canals.

The cyclepaths along the canals are boring. Try to follow the E1 on the riverbank; much more interesting!

At some point you can walk a few kilometers on a gravel path which is on a low dike between two canals. This gravel path starts at a footbridge near a lock (where exactly?) and you have to leave this gravel path at the bridge that is on this photo.

Abbiategrasso

Abbiategrasso

The regional road S 494 from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano is extremely dangerous: narrow and a lot of truck traffic. On the old Ponte di Vigevano there is no space for cyclists and pedestrians. (Just a 30 cm wide space between the balustrade and the crash barrier.) An elegant new bridge is under contruction . . . When will that new bridge open? And will it be accessible for pedestrians?

In the meantime your best option is to travel by train from Abbiategrasso to Vigevano.

Vigevago has a beautiful city centre. Leonardo da Vinci lived here for twenty years and he designed for Vigevano the “perfect market square” and a castle. He also designed ingenious irrigation canals.

Vigevano

Vigevano

The 25 km between Vigevano and Zerbolo there are actually NO shops, NO restaurants, NO hostels. You are on your own here.

Santuario Madonna delle Bozzola This is the most important religious place near Vigivano ? Where ?

Follow the signs of European long distance path E1. Go left, Via Aguzzafame. Go strait on, into a wood. After 150 (?) meter the E1 turns to the right. Here you have the option to first visit the small yacht-basin Ayala. Ayala has NO restaurant but it offers a group of picknick tables covered by a roof.
