This panoramic descent towards the ancient port of Trezzo sull'Adda allows you to observe the castle of Trezzo, built between 1370 and 1377 by Bernabò Visconti. It is very suggestive to observe the concrete hairpin bends from above and it is not even difficult to see the church of Capriate San Gervasio on the Bergamo side. A cable ferry placed at the base of the hairpin bends, similar to that of Imbersago, connected the two banks until 1887, when the iron progenitor of the current reinforced concrete bridge was built.

from Trezzo, along the road that leads to the castle ruins, down to the river on an always beautiful single track

Beautiful descent that takes us back to the route that runs along the Adda, perfect for gravel but also practicable with racing bikes with some precautions.
