チゼラーノでののおすすめグラベルライド

ムッツァ運河（全長61km）はアッダ川の支流で、最近800周年を迎え、ヨーロッパで最も古いものの一つとなっています。その名前は、世紀を経てわずかに変化しながらも、紀元前90年にここに移住し、最初の干拓事業を開始したローマのムティア家を今も偲ばせています。広大な運河からは小さな水路が分岐し、約1000キロメートルの総延長にわたって田園地帯を蛇行し、主に農業用水として利用されています。周囲の田園地帯と農家の風景は、木々の列と開けた畑が続く、印象的です。また、ルート沿いで観察できる多くの水鳥を引き寄せるため、自然の観点からも非常に興味深い場所です。

Be careful on the steps when the ground is wet! This passage allows you to cross the right bank of the Muzza.

In the center of town, on the right bank of the Martesana Canal, stands an imposing waterwheel (popularly known as a rudun) said to have been designed by Leonardo da Vinci himself. Despite appearances, the wheel is not a mill, but a noria. Its function, in fact, was never to grind grain or power machinery, but rather to lift water from the canal to channel it into an irrigation system.

We are in Groppello, a hamlet in the municipality of Cassano d'Adda, and we must go back in time to 1618, when Cardinal Federico Borromeo commissioned this large wheel to convey the water needed to irrigate the vegetable gardens and gardens of the Archbishop's Villa. It is said that this majestic work, at the Cardinal's request, was designed by Leonardo da Vinci himself. Which, if anything, adds to its charm.

The cycle path from Lago di Garlate along the Adda River is natural and therefore bumpy, but beautiful. An impressive hydroelectric power plant and a road/rail bridge near Paderno d'Adda showcase architecture from 100 years ago. This bridge is continuously monitored by a measuring system. You can see the monitoring as you cycle up to Paderno from the cycle path.

fun series of very gravel dirt roads!!
