Cycling day trip from Piacenza to Cremona

Cycle from Piacenza to Cremona

This leisurely ride leads you from the charming city of Piacenza to the musical heart of Cremona, spanning about 45 km of mostly flat terrain—making it ideal for an easy day out. Out of the saddle, Piacenza greets you with its Renaissance palazzos and lively piazzas. Once you roll out, enjoy a route that’s largely quiet country roads and paved surfaces, passing through the classic Po Valley landscape: broad fields, peaceful farmhouses, and plenty of fresh air.

With only minimal ascent, you’ll breeze along at your own pace, practically gliding into Cremona. Famed as the birthplace of renowned luthiers like Stradivari, Cremona is a must for music lovers and history buffs alike. Be sure to stop at the impressive Piazza del Comune and maybe catch a violin maker at work!

It’s a mellow ride perfect for all abilities, with lots of Italian character along the way. Just remember to pack a snack and a camera—this ride’s as scenic as it is simple!
