The L'Oasi Lipu Bosco Negri is a 34-hectare nature reserve located a few kilometers from the center of Pavia, within the Ticino Park. Managed by LIPU (Italian League for Bird Protection), it represents one of the rare and precious remnants of the ancient floodplain forest of the Po Valley.

The Sanctuary of Santa Maria del Novello (also known as Santuario del Novello) is a fascinating religious building located in Travacò Siccomario, in the province of Pavia. This small country church stands in a suggestive and isolated position within the floodplain area, just a few steps from the main left bank of the Po River. Origins: The original structure dates back to the late 1500s (or early 1600s according to some local sources). It was commissioned by the Bonacossa family and built over a previous country oratory, of which it still preserves the original fresco of the Madonna inside. Protection from floods: According to popular tradition, the building was erected at that precise spot to invoke divine protection against floods.

The Covered Bridge of Pavia and the nearby Borgo Basso (or Borgo Ticino) form one of the most picturesque and historically rich views in Lombardy, connecting the historic city center to the right bank of the Ticino River. Il Ponte Coperto History and Architecture: Also known as "Ponte Vecchio", the current five-arch structure with a roof and a small central chapel was rebuilt between 1949 and 1951. It reinterprets the forms of the 14th-century Covered Bridge (commissioned by Galeazzo II Visconti), which in turn was built on the remains of an ancient Roman bridge from the Augustan era. The Legend: The monument is linked to the evocative "Legend of the Devil", according to which the devil helped complete the construction on Christmas night in 999 in exchange for the first soul to cross, a pact thwarted by the intervention of an archangel.

After a wild route, at the entrance to the Magadino plain, the Ticino is channeled into embankments that turn it into a banal canal until the delta with which it flows into Lake Maggiore. It exits the lake near Sesto Calende (VA), at an altitude of 193 meters above sea level, to continue its course until beyond Pavia where, in the locality of Ponte della Becca, it flows into the Po river. The total length is 248 kilometers, 110 of which affect the territory of the eponymous Parks. Geomorphologically, the Ticino valley is characterized by a shape called "cassette": the river has indeed carved out a valley in all the environments it crosses (morainic hills, plateaus, and plains) rather narrow in the upper part and wider in the central part. Following the course of its riverbed, one can notice that the difference in altitude between the plain and the riverbed decreases as one moves away from Lake Maggiore.
