Anello Reggio Emilia Po prev asfalto

A route that stitches together stretches of cycle paths with sections on minor roads crossing the plain from south to north through the 'small capitals' of the history of the Bentivoglio and Gonzaga family possessions in the province of Reggio Emilia until reaching the Po river. We cross Bagnolo in Piano, Novellara and the evocative Valleys territory, Guastalla with its Romanesque parish churches, the Palazzo Ducale up to Lido Po at the old mooring of the pontoon bridge. From Lido, a floating bridge allows us to cross the Crostolo stream at the mouth of the Po and continue towards Gualtieri along the towpath, now a cycle path. After a stop in the beautiful Piazza Bentivoglio (a 100-meter square on each side), we return to Reggio Emilia along the embankment of the Crostolo stream, then minor roads to the town of Sesso and then urban cycle paths to enter the city.
