Ponte di Ganda, Stone bridge in Morbegno, Italy.

Ponte di Ganda spans the Adda between Morbegno and Civo with three arches, the central one taller than the two flanking arches. It is built of large granite blocks in a humpback profile. Since 2014 it has been closed to cars and open only to pedestrians and cyclists.

Construction took place in 1778 following designs by engineer Francesco Bernardino Ferrari to replace an earlier structure destroyed by flooding in 1772. This reconstruction restored a vital river crossing for the region.

The name Ganda comes from the local dialect for a stony, rocky area, describing the terrain where the bridge stands. For centuries this was the only stable crossing on the lower Adda, and Venetian merchants used the San Marco pass, Morbegno and this bridge as their preferred route for trade with northern Europe.

The bridge has been restricted to pedestrian and bicycle traffic since 2014, offering a direct link between the two communities. The terrain in this area can be uneven, so sturdy footwear is advisable.

The central arch was specially designed to allow vessels with full sails to pass through, according to an 1808 engineering report. This reflects how significant river navigation was for the region at that time.
