beautiful excursion climbed by mountain bike, characteristic villages, excellent panorama

Following the Adda river you reach the historic center of the town of Brivio (LC), where there are fountains to quench your thirst, trees and benches to enjoy the shade and the view. There are also bars and clubs. It is possible to enjoy the view of the tower of the Brivio castle, one of the many small pearls that distinguish the town.

WELL-SERVED COUNTRY ON THE VALASSINA

Famous castle of Manzonian memory, belonging to the historical and real knight of fortune Innominato. The fortress is overlooking the town below and overall the castle is well preserved. The descent that you see in the photos is quite dangerous on a mountain bike, it is better to lead by hand, but you can also go down from the north side on a road that is much less steep.

Very nice town, with beautiful countryside.

Nice little hike that leads to the historic complex of Fabbrica Durini, unfortunately abandoned and left in ruins, thus constituting a danger due to rubble falling onto the road.

The Durini family is an Italian noble family that has had a long history and a significant presence in the aristocratic sphere. One of the best-known branches of the family was the Durini of Monza, and Durini Castle is closely associated with this family. This historic residence dates back to the 15th century and was the home of the Durini family. The castle has been the subject of various architectural interventions over the centuries, reflecting the transformations and styles of the time. The Durini family played a significant role in the history of Italian nobility, also contributing to several cultural and religious institutions. Durini Castle, in addition to being a residence, may also have played a strategic or defensive role in the history of the region.

The Innominato castle is a 13th century fortification in Vercurago and overlooks Lecco. He inspired Alessandro Manzoni in "The Betrothed". The structure, located on the Tremasasso, has undergone multiple changes of ownership and destruction, and now houses a sculpture of Saint Girolamo Emiliani.
