ローダノ周辺のおすすめ交通量の少ないサイクリングルート

ムッツァ運河は12世紀から13世紀にかけて建設された重要な水利施設で、アッダ川からカッサーノ・ダッダで分岐し、カスティリオーネ・ダッダまで約39kmにわたって伸びています。ヨーロッパで最も古く、最も大きな灌漑運河の一つであり、ローディ地域の農業にとって不可欠な存在です。現在ではサイクリングロードも併設されています。

非常に美しいルートですが、帰りの区間は改善の余地があります。自転車で走行可能ですが、クレマとローディを結ぶ県道沿いを走ります。 新情報：コルテ・パラージオからカステッラリオ地区まで、アッダ川沿いに自転車歩行者専用道路が建設され、トルモ川には小さな橋が架けられました。工事は進行中ですが、すでに走行可能です。完成予定ですが、すでに走行可能です。美しく、景色が良く、森の中は日陰になっています。

サン・ビアージョの小さな教会は、ロディ高地の田園地帯にほぼ埋もれた農村集落という環境の中で、その立地においてユニークです。この複合施設全体は、結局のところ、ブラマンテの試作と見なすことができます。当時の革新的な構造は、建築家特有の工学的知識を強調しています。聖ビアージョ（セバステの司教であり殉教者）に捧げられた礼拝堂は、3つの後陣を持つ平行六面体の上部と、円形の窓の列と盲目の長方形の窓の別の列を持つ八角形の上部を備えています。低層の鐘楼がそれを補完しています。複合施設全体はテラコッタ製で、古典的なルネサンス様式の優雅さとプロポーションの外観を保持しています。

Beautiful dirt road that can be cycled along the canal

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 road owes its name to Duke Gabrio Servelloni, who purchased it from the Counts of Adda in 1760 to facilitate travel within his estates. This interpodal road, which follows the route of an ancient Roman centuriation, became a very important refuge during World War II. Surrounded by centuries-old trees and thick hedges, it was invisible to enemy aircraft, which dropped illuminating bombs at night to identify movements and potential targets. It is a mostly unpaved road that can only be traveled on foot or by bicycle and connects the municipalities of Rodano, Settala, and Pantigliate. Along the route, several active farms are still located in the Cascine di Cassinetta, Paradiso, Crocina, and Castello farms. This last farmhouse houses a museum of rural civilization. People came from the farms and neighboring villages such as Limito, Pobbiano, Trenzanesio, and Pioltello, which, being close to the Milan-Brescia railway line, were under constant bombardment from bombs dropped on the Segrate marshland and along the entire length of the railway. After the fall of the Roman Empire, the water system that had led to the reclamation of the Lombard plain was largely abandoned, returning this area to a marshy state. But already around the year 1000, the Cistercian monks, and later the Benedictine and Humiliati monks, restored and expanded the works built by the Romans, creating the current irrigation system that includes the Navigli and the Muzza canals—built between 1100 and 1400—and which was practically completed at the end of the 19th century with the opening of the Villoresi canal. The artefacts present in the area and visible along the “Strada del Duca” route can be dated from the 17th to the 19th century, the period in which the last brick and granite masonry works date back.

Beautiful cycle path even if the surface has been redone in some places: too many rocks/gravel

Nice canal, full of water and nice landscape. Dirt road sometimes a bit stony and uncomfortable, especially if you have thin wheels.
