The best road cycling routes around Trezzano Sul Naviglio

In Robecco sul Naviglio, the most famous and strategic public fountain for cyclists and runners is located directly along the Alzaia of the Naviglio Grande, near the historic Osteria da Ripa and a few meters from the characteristic pedestrian bridge of the town. It is a fundamental resting point for those traveling the cycle path, especially on hot days, as water supply points are scarce in that stretch of canal.

The former Church of San Bernardo in Morimondo (MI) is a building of medieval origin dating back to the 12th century. Located in Via Roma, 8, at the entrance to the historic center, it is a private and currently deconsecrated structure, which preserves the original flat apse and a Lombard terracotta bell tower. The building, which once served as the parish church for the settlement under the guidance of the monks, has a single-nave layout heavily renovated at the end of the 17th century. Today, the former church is one of the first evocative stops in the village and overlooks the cobblestones leading to the nearby and more famous Abbey of Santa Maria di Morimondo. Together with the surrounding rural dwellings, it forms a picturesque view greatly appreciated by visitors exploring the area.

The Bridge of Cassinetta di Lugagnano is one of the most characteristic and historically significant monuments located along the Naviglio Grande, in the metropolitan city of Milan. Originally built of granite, the structure dates back to the 17th century, erected during the Spanish rule of the Duchy of Milan to connect the two historic centers divided by the canal. The bridge historically unites Lugagnano (on the right bank, of Roman origin) and Cassinetta (on the left bank, of medieval design). The bridge was completely rebuilt in a donkey-back shape in May 1862. This intervention became necessary both to repair the damage from the wars of independence (such as the nearby Battle of Magenta in 1859) and to facilitate the transit of commercial barges on the Naviglio.

The Naviglio Grande riverside in Gaggiano offers a picturesque cycle and pedestrian path immersed in the Parco Agricolo Sud Milano. It is easily reachable from Milan via the Naviglio Grande Cycle Path, is about 15 km from the centre, and is known for its historic villas, such as Palazzo Venini Uboldi and the characteristic Ponte Vecchio.

L'Alzaia del Naviglio di Bereguardo is the historic towpath, today transformed into a splendid cycle-pedestrian path of about 19 kilometers, which runs along the artificial canal of the same name. It connects Castelletto di Abbiategrasso (where the canal originates, branching off from the Naviglio Grande) to the municipality of Bereguardo, finally flowing into the Ticino river. Built in the 15th century at the behest of the Dukes of Milan (the Visconti first, then the Sforza), the canal served as a fundamental commercial route (particularly for salt and cheeses) to connect the city to the Po river and the sea.

The reference is to the Naviglio Grande Cycle-Pedestrian Bridge (also known as the Lorenteggio-Ronchetto bridge or M4 San Cristoforo bridge). The structure spans the Naviglio Grande and the railway in a single jump, directly connecting the Lorenteggio/Giambellino district (from Piazza Tirana) with the Ronchetto sul Naviglio district (Via Lodovico il Moro), while also ensuring access to the M4 San Cristoforo metro station.
