Embark on the Cycling routes in Lomellina - Ring tour, a moderate touring bicycle adventure spanning 32.6 miles (52.5 km) with a gentle elevation gain of 351 feet (107 metres), typically completed in about 3 hours and 21 minutes. This route offers a diverse experience, taking you through the distinctive agricultural landscapes of Lomellina. You will cycle past expansive rice fields and tranquil poplar groves, enjoying picturesque views of the countryside. The terrain is mixed, featuring predominantly paved surfaces like asphalt roads and cycleways, but also includes unpaved sections, paths, and even some cobblestones, adding variety to your ride. Keep an eye out for glimpses of the Alps on clear days as you follow the route.
To best enjoy this moderate route, which requires a good level of fitness, consider using a trekking or gravel bicycle. The presence of gravel and unpaved sections means tires of at least 40mm are recommended for optimal comfort and performance. While some segments are easy, be prepared for certain unpaved parts that might be more challenging and could require you to push your bike. Planning your ride during favorable weather will enhance your experience, especially on the unpaved segments.
This ring tour is notable for blending natural beauty with historical significance, often following sections of the ancient Via Francigena. As you cycle, you will journey through historical sites and open countryside, experiencing the region's strong ties to rice production. The route also offers opportunities to explore charming small rural churches, including one with Knights Templar connections, and to visit castles and abbeys. It provides a rich blend of cultural and natural attractions unique to the Lomellina area.
