Little traffic, always in the shade and therefore often muddy, but it is a small oasis of pleasant nature

Just be careful about the distances: the Canale Villoresi cycle path, which runs alongside the canal, is 85 kilometers long. It begins near the town of Somma Lombardo and ends near Cassano d'Adda, so unless you're very fit, we recommend doing it in stages! Along the way, the path has short sections where it merges with city streets.
