This name refers to its geographic position to the south of the mighty Po River and in the proximity of the university city of Pavia.

The 11th century hermitage is situated on a hill amidst the woods of the western border of the Oltrep\u00f2. The isolated position of the monastery, that consists of three interconnected churches, makes it ideal for getting into a meditative mood. Inside you will see a number of beautiful medieval (15th century) fresco\u2019s and the moving simple room of the blind brother Frate Ave Maria (yes that was really his name).<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Field Notes &#8211; Oltrepo Pavese<\/span><\/p>\n<p>We cycled through an area of Italy called the Oltrepo Pavese today. This is an area of the Province of Pavia, in the north-west Italian region of Lombardy, which lies to the south of the river Po. It is oltre (\u2018beyond\u2019) the Po, when considered from the provincial capital Pavia and in general from the rest of Lombardy. In 2014 CNN ran a report describing the area as the \u2018Tuscany of Northern Italy\u2019.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Castello di Rivalta<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Tonight we stayed in a \u2018borgo\u2019 that has been owned by the same family for over 800 years. Situated on the River Trebbia &#8211; site of Hannibal\u2019s first major engagement with the Romans in Italy &#8211; the Borgo of Rivalta dates back to 1025 and was an incredibly atmospheric spot to spend our rest day.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Hannibal Notes &#8211; Battle of Trebbia<\/span><\/p>\n<p>It was December and bitterly cold and wet and Scipio\u2019s Roman army was mostly raw recruits. Scipio urged caution but Longus, his co-consul, was keen to engage.<\/p>\n<p>This confidence was in spite of a defection from the Roman camp by several thousand of their Celtic allies, who went over to Hannibal. A key part of the Carthaginian General\u2019s strategy was to win over the Celts in northern Italy who were considered important but not very reliable allies in his war against Rome. In fact, Hannibal, wary of assassination by these fickle friends, is thought to have worn wigs to avoid being recognised.<\/p>\n<p>Hannibal \u2013 an expert in the psychology of war and aware of the impetuous nature of Longus \u2013 set his trap. He sent his youngest brother Mago with a hand picked force to hide in some reeds near a bank of the Trebbia, the river is little more than a stream nowadays.<\/p>\n<p>The location of our hotel is very atmospheric \u2013 A lovely green valley extends upriver \u2013 it so captivated Ernest Hemingway when he was here during World War II that the local newspaper quotes him as describing it as \u2018the most beautiful valley in the world.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>In a move that would start the battle, Hannibal sent his Numidian cavalry to harrass the Roman camp at first light and lure them out. Longus eagerly complied and sent his men across the swollen and freezing river towards the Carthaginian army. The Romans were now cold, wet and hungry (they hadn\u2019t had breakfast) and for these reasons were perhaps beaten before they had even started fighting. They were so cold in fact, that they had trouble drawing their weapons when they reached the other side of the river after wading through its freezing waters.<\/p>\n<p>The description of this intense cold in Livy and Polybius rang true when we cycled this back in 2009 with tents! Our night in Rivergano campsite was one of the coldest we had experienced so far, including our Alpine passage. Waiting for the Romans on the other bank the Carthaginians were fresh, had breakfasted and had kept warm around their campfires. They had the better of the early engagement then Mago sprung from his hiding spot \u2013 \u201ca manoevre which threw the whole Roman army into confusion and dismay\u201d (Polyibus III.74) and all was lost for the Romans.<\/p>\n<p>Trebbia was to be Hannibal\u2019s first great victory over Rome. Using psychological tactics and his army&#8217;s strengths Hannibal defeated a numerically superior force. Scipio&#8217;s men, frozen to the core, walked straight into a trap. Hannibal\u2019s army slaughtered almost 32,000 Romans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the Road &#8211; Distance: 109km I 68miles I Elevation: 2164m I 7100ft We leave Piedmont today as we headed up into [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":522,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-88","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hannibal","category-italy"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Day 21: Il Muros Challenge!
