Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Pavie à Plaisance

This ride takes you from the beautiful city of Pavia to historic Piacenza, covering just under 80 km—mostly flat, so your legs will thank you! You’ll start in Pavia, famous for its medieval university and its iconic covered bridge, sneaking out of town along gentle riverside tracks and quiet roads. Expect mostly paved surfaces (but keep an eye out for a few short gravel or ground stretches).

The route keeps things easygoing, weaving through tranquil countryside, sleepy villages, and quiet lanes with hardly a busy road in sight. You’ll gradually lose a bit more elevation than you gain (always a bonus!) before coasting into Piacenza, a city packed with Renaissance palaces and lively piazzas—perfect for a gelato or espresso after your ride.

If you fancy Italian landscapes, peaceful pedaling, and towns rich in history, this is a perfect day out on the bike!
