スピラーノでののおすすめグラベルライド

Muzza運河（全長61km）は、アッダ川の支流であり、最近800周年を迎え、ヨーロッパで最も古いものの一つです。その名前は、数世紀にわたるわずかな変化を経て、紀元前90年にここに移住し、最初の干拓工事を開始したローマのMutia家の名前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に入り込み、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印象的で、木々の列と開けた畑が交互に続いています。また、自然の観点からも非常に興味深く、多くの水鳥を引き寄せ、ルート沿いで観察することができます。

Majestic, it appears at first glance to be undeniably original, lacking the essential features of Lombard castles: no battlements, a single tower, no bastions, no moat. This singular aesthetic appearance is nothing more than the result of a millennia-long history of renovations and abandonment!

If you start the tour in the morning, near the end of the tour around 1:00 PM, it's worth stopping for a bite to eat at the Trattoria delle Querce, which is always open in all seasons, from Wednesday to Sunday, and from which on the right days you can enjoy a spectacular view.

Along the Val Seriama cycle path

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.

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.

nice flowing stretch, typically gravel, with wonderful views
