    The Dossena Mines represent a historical testimony to industrial and mining archaeology in the Brembana Valley.

    These mines have been an important resource for mineral extraction, particularly calamine (a zinc ore), since ancient times. The guided tour allows you to explore the main galleries and learn about the history, mining techniques, and miners' lives.

      Departure from Selvino towards Trafficanti (Via Mercatorum) then Serina, Colle di Dossena and at the first houses in the town keep to the right, staying high. The road and the signs for the mines do the rest, you can't go wrong. Shortly before and shortly after the mines there is a gravel section, almost all of which is easy to pedal. Then splendid descent, all on asphalt, towards Camerata Cornello. From here it is "intriguing" the uphill face, very hard, towards Cespedonio. Alternatively, when you come to cross the Val Brembana cycle path instead of going up towards Lenna, go down towards San Pellegrino to go up to Selvino. The tour is about 15-17 kilometers long.
