San Michele Bridge between Paderno and Carvico

very shaded path, perfect for hot days.

The Esterle hydroelectric power plant, located on the right bank of the Adda River, began operating in 1914. It is dedicated to the memory of Carlo Esterle, Edison's managing director until 1918. The building, particularly known for its beauty, is constructed in a style derived from the eclectic Lombard tradition. The meticulous ornaments, the geometric and floral motifs, the columns and capitals at the entrance, the wrought iron street lamps and the imposing Gothic-style windows make it appear more like a villa than a real industrial building.

The San Michele bridge, also known as the Calusco bridge, Paderno bridge or Röthlisberger bridge, is an icon of Italian industrial archaeology. Located in the gorge of the Adda river, it connects Paderno d'Adda and Calusco d'Adda and is an iron arch bridge for mixed rail-road traffic, now open only to road transit. With over 100 meters of height above the waters of the Adda river, the bridge offers a spectacular visual impact from the top. Its fascinating structure and the history linked to the region make it a point of reference along the Lecco-Trezzo d'Adda route. A recognized masterpiece, the San Michele Bridge represents a significant testimony to the local industrial history.

Power plant located downstream of the pre-existing Bertini hydroelectric power plant. It was dedicated to the memory of Carlo Esterle, managing director of the Edison company until 1918. Particularly cared for on an architectural and aesthetic level.
