Destra Po
Itinerary: Stellata di Bondeno, Bondeno, Mesola, Goro, Gorino Ferrarese
The route, mainly along cycle paths, runs alongside the river Po in its last 100 kilometres separating it from the sea. It starts from the Mighty Fortress di Stellata, the symbol of Bondeno, and continues through the evocative river landscapes as far as the Sacca di Gorino and its lighthouse. During the itinerary, which does not present any particular technical difficulties but is nevertheless challenging due to its length, we encounter various places of interest not only naturalistic but also historical. These include Mesola Castle, an Este family home dating back to 1578.
