ロンチェッロのおすすめツーリングルート

ヴィッロレシ運河の堤防サイクリングロードは、約85〜90kmの平坦でほぼ専用の自転車・歩行者用ルートで、ティチーノ川（Panperduto、Somma Lombardoのダム）とアッダ川（Groppello）を結んでいます。ブリアンツァとミラノ北部を横断し、サイクリングツーリング、グラベル/MTB、散策に最適です。

Iconic cycleable asphalt ramp leading to the Castle

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!

San Michele Bridge between Paderno and Carvico

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.

Beautiful, very imposing farmhouse
