Pavia, City of Walking Trails

Words That Walk—Guided Tours Along the Trails That Cross the City

Ten walks along the historical, religious, and cultural routes that cross the city of Pavia. A program divided into three types of routes, designed to highlight the area’s cultural, scenic, and environmental heritage in diverse ways:

  • Nature walks led by a nature guide
  • Historical and cultural walks accompanied by a tour guide
  • Longer and more immersive urban treks

A common narrative thread : each walk is associated with a keyword, chosen to guide the narrative, the experience, and the interpretation of the route, helping to build a recognizable and shared narrative identity.

Included services

  • Lunch box and map of the trails provided to all participants
  • Return transfer service, including via local public transportation (excluding the final walk, which takes place in the city center)

At the end of the walk, participants will receive the hiking passport , which will be stamped by the Municipality of Pavia to certify the route completed.

 

PLACES ARE SOLD OUT, BUT WE RECOMMEND SENDING AN EMAIL TO cammini@archepavia.org TO BE ADDED TO THE WAITING LIST
