Tips from the Community
Villa Picchetta di Cameri, the stately seat and property of the Park, already mentioned in 16th-century documents, overlooks the Ticino valley. It is enriched by three gardens, the Octagon Room with its frescoes, and the East Room with an imposing fireplace. The historic building, acquired in 1989 thanks to the contribution of the Piedmont Region, was in the past the manor house of an ancient agricultural complex, Cascina Picchetta, consisting of rustic buildings and the villa itself, located at the center of the settlement, which still today is distinguished by the stately architectural features.

East Bank of the Ticino - The Paladella dam was built after 1250, located in Tornavento, it marked the origin of the Naviglio Grande and was made of immersed granite slabs that divided the Ticino river into two branches, separating its waters. Originally, it was a palisade that deteriorated with each flood of the river. The main part of the dam, called "spur", juts out into the river for 280 meters using granite blocks, dividing the waters and creating the main channel of the Naviglio. A part of the water, called "mouth of Pavia", was left free to allow navigation towards Pavia and allow the development of the economies of the surrounding territories.

Nice maze of single tracks, easy but definitely fun! Also suitable for those who, like me, are not exactly tightrope walkers...
