Ponte Gobbo, Bobbio

Emilia-Romagna

The Ponte Gobbo (Hunchback Bridge) of Bobbio in the Val Trebbia has 11 uneven arches crossing the Trebbia river — the irregular heights give it the hunchback appearance. Ernest Hemingway described the Trebbia above Bobbio as 'the most beautiful river in the world'. The Trebbia is clear and cold — excellent for swimming. Otter has been confirmed on this stretch. Dogs off-leash by the river.
