Embark on a moderate jogging loop through the Lombard Park of the Ticino, a journey of 5.8 miles (9.3 km) with a modest elevation gain of 134 feet (41 metres), typically completed in about 1 hour and 1 minute. You will experience a varied landscape, from lush riverbanks and transparent waters along the Ticino River to irrigated plains, canals, and poplar plantations. The terrain shifts between footpaths, paved sections, and natural paths, offering a dynamic experience. A highlight of your run will be passing by the historic Ponte Coperto, the Covered Bridge of Pavia, a notable landmark that adds a touch of history to the scenic route. Further along, you'll explore the unique micro-environments of the Parco della Sora, with its mixed forests and wetlands.
Planning your visit to this scenic loop is straightforward, with the route being generally dog-friendly, provided your canine companion stays on a leash. For the most pleasant jogging conditions, consider heading out in spring or autumn when the temperatures are milder and the natural scenery is at its most vibrant. If you prefer a summer run, you will find opportunities to cool off at equipped beaches located along the Ticino River. The varied terrain, including footpaths, paved sections, and unpaved stretches, means comfortable jogging shoes are a must for this moderate outing. While specific trailhead details aren't provided, the loop is easily accessible within the Lombard Park of the Ticino.
This trail offers a unique blend of natural beauty and cultural heritage within Italy's first regional park. A key point of interest is the Statue of the Washerwoman (Statua della Lavandaia) in Borgo Ticino, Pavia, a sculpture commemorating the historical presence of washerwomen who traditionally used the Ticino River for washing clothes. The ancient quarter of Borgo Ticino itself adds a rich historical dimension to your run. The route also connects with several other trails, including sections of the Via Francisca del Lucomagno, allowing for longer explorations if you wish to extend your adventure.
