The Naviglio di Bereguardo boasts a historic complex of 12 navigation locks (or sluices) IL NAVIGLIO DI BERE GUARDO - Il Motografo, designed to overcome a height difference of 24 m over a distance of just 19 km Naviglio di Bereguardo - Wikipedia. Inaugurated starting from 1438, these Navigli locks allowed boats to go up the Ticino and reach Milan, making the canal the famous "salt road" Il Naviglio di Bereguardo. Today the locks are no longer active for navigation Il Naviglio di Bereguardo and mainly serve as an irrigation canal. You can admire the best-preserved masonry remains and the original bottom gates near Cascina Conca (between Morimondo and Motta Visconti).

The Church of San Giovanni Battista of Tavernasco does not exist with this specific name; the small historic village of Cascina Tavernasco (located in the municipality of Noviglio, in the metropolitan city of Milan) actually houses the Oratory of San Rocco.

The fields and rice paddies near Noviglio can periodically be flooded due to heavy rainfall or normal irrigation and agricultural channel management operations. These floods generally concentrate near the local cycle paths and rural roads—such as those of the Sprint delle Risaie di Cantalupo on Komoot—which follow the course of local canals. The area is part of a region with an extensive irrigation network, making the fields close to the embankments easily prone to waterlogging during the rainier months and the sowing season.

The expression "leonardesque lock" is used because the entire system of Lombard locks is based on hydraulic principles perfected and designed by Leonardo da Vinci in his Codex Atlanticus. Among the leonardesque innovations applied to these structures are: Swinging gates: wooden doors arranged in a "V" shape (bacia vinciana) that exploit the pressure of the current itself to seal hermetically. Guillotine valves: small openings inserted into the main gates, manually operated to regulate the internal water flow and level the basin with minimal effort.

A real surprise: a cycle path that is a straight stretch but is still nice to ride. Very wide, it allows you to cycle without problems with any type of bike

perfect asphalt BUT... 1. both in the underpass of Casarile and on arrival in Pavia, the final arrangements for the wooden bridge and the arrival at the stadium are delayed... how much longer??!! 2. "bike-friendly" signage is completely missing for the safety of bikers and cars/pedestrians, both on the crossings of the cycle path with roads used by traffic and for finding the cycle path from the Alzaia Pavese 3. once you are on the main road SS35 at Binasco to get back on the cycle path, YOU RISK YOUR LIFE!! accesses not signposted for either cars or cyclists and almost impossible to use in both directions ... DANGER to be fixed before an accident happens!
