Home » Two Wheels in the City: Modena, exquisite and sparkling
Cycling in the Emilian city that has always been admired for its architectural treasures, cuisine and cultural life. A land of flavors and motors, Modena is mirrored in the small streets of the historic center, its churches, palaces and large city parks.
Technical description:
The loop bike tour is 10 km long, entirely on a bike path. The first part of the course is developed in the downtown, the heart of Modenese life, cycling through an area rich in artistic and historical beauty, between the 17th-century Ducal Palace (home of the prestigious Military Academy) and Piazza Grande, overlooked by the Cathedral and the Civic Tower (better known as Ghirlandina), symbols of the city and UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Proceeding south through the downtown streets, one passes by the old University building to arrive at Rimembranze Park and the avenues that run through it.
From here, the route reaches some of the city’s vast green areas, starting from Giovanni Amendola Park to the large Enzo Ferrari Park, a highlight for events and performances.
Back toward the historic center, we pedal past Novi Sad Park (much frequented by young people and home to the market) to Pomposa Square, the last stop before returning to Piazza Roma at the Ducal Palace.
