Cycling along the lovely Regge river, it is almost impossible to imagine how harsh life here used to be. Skippers and farmers struggled for centuries. At times, the river could be too wild and too ferocious. At other times, too dry or too dirty. Agriculture, livestock farming and shipping never came easy. There was respite for a while, when the river was canalised and ran nice and straight. It didn’t last long: new problems arose. Nowadays, the Regge river meanders as before and the inviting cycle paths happily twist and wind their way to the river’s course. Everything seems just fine and dandy for now!
