Itinerary description
Waypoints
Bridge across Po
Bridge across the Po at Borgoforte. The bridge is a small detour from the route to get a view across the Po river. A train bridge is next to this bridge.
Grazie
Small town largely there for the santuary of Santa Maria delle Grazie. During my visit the asphalt square in front of the santuary was painted with biblical scenes as part of some sort of contest.
Mantova
Mantova is a beautiful city on the river Mincio, where the river has expanded into lakes. The city has an attractive center with old piazzas, a duke's palace, and churches. Nice location for a break.
Mincio bridge at Valeggio sul Mincio
This ancient fortified bridge at Borghetto beneath Valeggio sul Mincio gives nice views of the river, Borghetto, the bridge and the Castello. The bridge itself is a small detour from the route.
Volta Mantovana
Small town at the edge of the Po plain. It is the first climb of the day to get there from the Mincio river. The route contains a small detour through the old town center.
