Overview

The territory is located in the northwestern area of the province and borders with the provinces of Milan, Lodi and Piacenza (in Emilia-Romagna). It is crossed at its southern borders by the river Po and in the east by Ticino, which separates it from the Lomellina and the Oltrepò Pavese. The territory is flat, except from some hills, and is crossed by the rivers Olona, Southern Lambro, Naviglio Pavese, Naviglio di Bereguardo and several acequias.

Municipalities

The territory is divided traditionally in the city of Pavia and the areas of Campagna Soprana (i.e. "Upper Rural Area") and Campagna Sottana (i.e. "Lower Rural Area").
