Ticino Park

Established in 1974, the Ticino Park now stretches across the Po Valley from Lake Maggiore to the confluence with the River Po, a rich mix of nature, landscape, art and history. With 780 km of trails, 122 km of them along the Navigli towpaths, it is the ideal place to be out in the green and the open air, and to discover the richness of natural environments a short distance from Milan. B&B La Tarantola stands in front of the canal that connects directly to the Ticino. Since 2002 UNESCO has recognised the Ticino Valley as an MAB Biosphere Reserve, not only for its oak and hornbeam forests, unique in the whole Po Valley, but also for the richness of its ecosystems and biodiversity. Best explored by bicycle.
