park of the Ticino
To protect the wonderful corner of rich world of cried and animals, story and culture, traditions, fertile lands and forests that the river Ticino gave him, the man, in 1974, created around the river a Regional Park, the Lombard Park of the Valley of the Ticino, the first one founded in Italy. Its territory (90.640 hectares) it is extended on the provinces of Milan, Varese, Pavia and Novara and interests quite 46 communes.
To management,that entrusted at The
Consorzio Lombardo the Valley of the Ticino is developed 
in a tight collaboration with the favorite area twins namely the Natural Park Piedmontese of
the Ticino (6.250 hectares). The "Blue River", like still comes called from the people
that lives on its sides, is long 248 km, is born from the glaciers of the Alpses Lepontine
in Switzerland at Novena valic, travels then the splendide valleys of the Canton Ticino to
end up in, still in Switzerland, in the Maggiore Lake of whom is the main tributary and the
sole emissary.
After this short "story" of our river, we pass to describe short the route that we will confront to the inside of the same park:
Different they are the possibility offers from the thick net of paths and routes that go through entirely the park, and therefore of time in time will be able to decide from what place to carry out the departure, I obviate also in function of the length of the route that we will choose.
Bereguardo, Pavia, Besate, Zelata, Vigevano, Casterno, they are some of the centers from which leaves the route for our "tour",15-20.40-50 kilometers for every training, hence we will meet incredible single-track to back of the blue river, capable of to satisfy also the biker plus experts, exciting the technologies of "bike driving". In the full respect of the neighboring environment, will observe closes of landscapes that remember the French brughiere, a true oneShort and binding it will do however to amuse whoever without to tire. Our spirit is absolutely impronted to the contact interpersonal, to the healthy and cordial meeting place between friends, that privilege the fun respecting the environment, therefore nothing racing or spectacle circleshows, but a good occasion to spend a day to the open air.
