The Lura Park is a beautiful green lung on the outskirts of Milan full of paths

The municipalities located south of the Lura Valley are often subject to flooding phenomena. The construction of the Lura stream lamination areas was designed for the hydraulic protection of the towns located downstream of Lomazzo and involved the residents of the surrounding municipalities in a truly participatory process right from the planning stages. Volumes (340,000 m3) of areas available for flood management were created. During the excavation phase, outcrops of "ceppo" emerged, a conglomerate rock typical of moraines. The "ceppo", from which the site takes its name (I Prati del Ceppo), can be observed as a covering for hydraulic structures, as anti-erosion bank protection, as a construction material for small structures for the collection, drainage and management of water, as flooring for paths, and perches for birdlife.

The fauna is typically aquatic: red frogs and toads come every year to reproduce and for some years there have also been one or two pairs of mallards.

Walking along the LP/847 path from Beregazzo in the direction of Appiano Gentile, after passing the Ca' Bianca farmhouse, you come across the pond of the same name on the left. To observe it better, it is best to turn left onto path 846, which partly runs along its banks. The Ca' Bianca pond, among the largest in the Pineta Park, is home to a rich population of water lilies, which bloom beautifully in summer. Along the banks, on the northernmost side, cattails and other aquatic plants also grow.

The church, isolated on the edge of the Appiano pine forest, can be reached via path 543. It stands in a pleasant position, separated from the town by the valley of the Antiga stream. It can be visited in conjunction with the religious celebrations which end every year on 19 July and which include processions and recitations of rosaries.
