Pure Gravel ride. With mixed stretches on asphalt to relax a bit. Alternating shade and sun, but I think mid-season is preferable. The stretch of Verolavecchia and Verolanuova is beautiful, with its architectural features. There are fun climbs and descents, for which, however, it's better to have good brakes (as always).

The Naviglio Civico di Cremona is a historic artificial canal of about 57 km (reaching over 75 km considering the underground section "Cremonella" and the final stretch into the Po River), built in 1337 for irrigation purposes and still fundamental for agriculture today. It crosses the province from north to south, connecting the Oglio river to the city, characterized by a landscape rich in biodiversity, ancient farmhouses, and a cycle path.

The Mirabello hydroelectric power plant built at the beginning of the 20th century supplied 140 kW of energy, mostly to the Municipality of Cremona. With the nationalization of electricity production, the small power plants in the area became unprofitable and were therefore abandoned.

The hydraulic junction of the Tombe Morte-Tredici Ponti constitutes the most important concentration of artificial waterways in the province of Cremona, irrigating approximately 85,000 hectares of countryside. Here the Naviglio Civico di Cremona, the Naviglio Grande Pallavicino and the Canale Vacchelli intersect, the latter pouring almost all of its flow into the Naviglio Pallavicino, the Naviglio Civico and a dozen irrigation ditches through an impressive system of locks. Finally, a spillway, built between 1968 and 1981, detaches from the junction, which discharges any excess flow from the Naviglio Civico, the Naviglio Pallavicino and the Vacchelli into the Oglio river. Two different hypotheses have been made regarding the origin of the name, the first would originate from the term tomba which is synonymous with siphon, a hydraulic element that connects two conduits. Probably some of these artifacts would have fallen into disuse, hence the adjective death. Another hypothesis is linked to the discovery of several dozen burials dating back to the late Roman era.
