A food and wine walk between the banks of the Po and the flavors of Oltrepò
The Mangialonga Porte dell'Oltrepò is a food and wine walk that combines light sport, nature, and good food along the banks of the Po, in the territory of the Municipalities of Rea and Verrua Po, in the Province of Pavia. The route follows a nature trail that runs along the river, offering suggestive views of the Pavia plain and the river landscape.
The heart of the experience lies in the refreshment points spread along the path, where participants can stop to taste the local culinary specialties and the typical wines of Oltrepò Pavese, one of Italy's most important wine-growing areas. Each stop offers a taste of the gastronomic tradition of this corner of Lombardy south of the Po.
The route ideally connects the area of Ponte della Becca to the Ponte di Bressana, crossing the territories of Rea and Verrua Po along the riverbanks. It is a walk suitable for everyone, designed to be enjoyed at a leisurely pace, alternating the pleasure of the landscape with that of good food.
The event, promoted by the Porte dell'Oltrepò network, is an opportunity to discover a less touristy but authentic Oltrepò, made up of small villages, agriculture, and vineyards. It is an offering that promotes slow tourism and territorial enhancement, where conviviality is an integral part of the experience.
The 2026 edition of the Mangialonga Porte dell'Oltrepò is scheduled for Sunday, May 10, along the banks of the Po, in the territories of Rea and Verrua Po. The nature trail runs along the river and includes several refreshment points where you can stop to taste local specialties accompanied by wines from Oltrepò Pavese.
The walk, suitable for everyone, combines the pleasure of the river landscape with that of good food, in a day designed to discover an authentic corner of the Pavia plain at a slow pace.
