The cycle path is very pleasant, especially on this section: peaceful, with beautiful views. I rode along it at the end of the day; the setting sun cast an orange light on the trees – it was magnificent!

The Via Rohna runs past this small harbor. In addition to recreational boats, several houseboats are also anchored there. Some of them have been there so long that they have a mailbox. There is a place to stop for refreshments, but you have to catch it open.

Along this stretch, the landscape is dominated by vineyards and orchards. To protect the plants and soil from erosion, some of the fields are surrounded by cypress trees, some as tall as a two-story house.

Wiki: The unit of distance used on milestones (in Latin, miliarium in the singular, miliaria[1] in the plural), was 1,000 Roman paces (hence the term milliaire) — each of these paces being two strides — or approximately 1,482 km. Antoninus Pius, originally from Nîmes, reigned from 138 to 161. He was one of the sovereigns known as the "five good emperors."

You have to like driving on long, flat straights. It's quite boring but at least there are no cars.
