À vélo de Treviglio à Calvenzano

Spin out from Treviglio, the “capital of the Bassa Bergamasca,” known for its historic center and the Santuario della Madonna delle Lacrime, and head south into the open Po Plain. The route is pancake-flat with just a few gentle dips, mostly on quiet local roads, a touch of cycleway, and a couple of farm tracks through the fields.

Surface-wise it’s largely asphalt with a few short gravel stretches along irrigation canals—no problem for most bikes, just mind loose stones. Traffic is usually light, so you can settle into an easy rhythm and enjoy the countryside.

After about 5.6 km you’ll roll into Calvenzano, a small, peaceful Lombard village with a compact historic core and rural courtyards—ideal for an espresso or gelato before looping back or continuing toward nearby towns like Caravaggio.

Tip: watch for tractors on harvest days and ease off on the gravel bits.
