Embark on the Martesana Cycle Route for a refreshing racebike journey that quickly transports you from Milan's urban edge into the tranquil Lombardy countryside. This moderate route spans 40.8 miles (65.7 km), with a gentle elevation gain of 481 feet (147 metres), making it a comfortable ride for most cyclists. As you pedal, you will pass by cultivated fields, charming towns like Cernusco sul Naviglio, and green parks perfect for a quick stop, typically completing the full distance in about 2 hours and 37 minutes.
Planning your ride is straightforward, as the route is predominantly flat and well-marked, with most of the path paved. This makes it accessible for a wide range of cyclists. Be aware that the Martesana Cycle Route can become quite busy on weekends, as it is a shared path for both cyclists and pedestrians, so you should maintain a moderate speed and be mindful of others. Towns along the way offer convenient spots to take a break and enjoy some local cuisine.
What truly sets this route apart are the historical elements you will encounter along the canal, such as the impressive Bellinzago Lombardo Locks and the elegant aristocratic mansions, known as "ville di delizia." These landmarks provide unique visual interest and a glimpse into the region's rich past, offering more than just a scenic ride through the Italian landscape.
