You can go under it but then there are others further ahead. Much easier to take the asphalt road that passes alongside

The Naviglio Civico di Cremona or Navigli Cremonesi cycle path follows the artificial canal of the same name for 27 kilometers, crossing the province of Cremona. Points of particular interest along the route include the "Sentiero dell'olmo," a two-kilometer unpaved nature trail, and the "Tombe Morte" area, a crucial waterway intersection where the Naviglio Civico di Cremona meets the Canale Vacchelli and the Naviglio Grande Pallavicino, and from which 11 irrigation ditches begin. The route is flat and presents no difficulties. An integral part of the "Music in the Wind" cycle-musical itinerary, it crosses the plain between the Adda and Oglio rivers in the provinces of Bergamo and Cremona, and is composed of three routes: the Cremonese Canals itinerary, the Adda and Serio itineraries. The routes mainly follow protected cycle paths or trails, as they are almost always within the protected natural areas of the Serio Park or the Adda Sud Park.

Cremona's historic center is an area of extraordinary artistic, historical, architectural, and cultural value, and a major tourist attraction. It also serves as a driving force and stimulus for the economic development of the entire city. It is, therefore, a priceless asset whose characteristics and strategic role must be preserved as much as possible. In recent years, thanks in part to the collaborative efforts of local public institutions, through numerous revitalization, promotion, and support initiatives, and significant renovation projects, the area has undergone a significant revitalization. This has been evident both in the steady increase in visitors, as evidenced by tourist flow data, and in the resulting renewed interest of private entrepreneurs in investing in the area.
