비가노 최고의 사이클링 경로

몬테베키아는 밀라노, 브리안차, 레코 프리알프스 사이에 자리한 매력적인 마을입니다. 해발 약 500미터 높이에서 솟아 있으며, 유명한 피라미드, 신비로운 암석 지형이 나타나는 몬테베키아와 쿠로네 계곡 지역 공원의 거의 3000헥타르에 달하는 면적을 조망합니다.

classic! Getting here and going down the other side of the Brianza roof ;)

I checked today, July 23, 2025, and extraordinary maintenance work is underway. They've temporarily closed the road to bicycles and pedestrians. Definitely avoid it during business hours.

Beautiful but challenging, especially after the rain

Priority to pedestrians

Montevecchia is a town in Lombardy, in the province of Lecco, known for its scenic beauty and historical heritage. It is part of the Curone Valley Regional Park, which offers numerous hiking trails and outdoor activities. The town is characterized by cobbled streets, historic buildings and a panoramic view of the surrounding hills. The Church of San Giovanni Battista, with its bell tower, is one of the main points of interest. Montevecchia is also famous for its agricultural traditions and the wines produced in the area. Throughout the year, several local events and festivals take place that celebrate the culture and gastronomy of the region.

At the edge of a crossroads on a small elevation of the land, there is the church of Sant'Antonio da Padova. We are in the hamlet of Piè Castello. The building, whose façade vaguely recalls a Spanish style, appears as a modest construction. Inside there is an eighteenth-century decoration. The detail of the small three-voice bell tower is interesting. The church is accessed via a short stone staircase. Its state of conservation is precarious and unfortunately it appears to be in a state of abandonment. Unknown to most, the small oratory dedicated to Sant'Antonio da Padova stands in the oldest part of the town of Maggianico, in the Bruga area. It was built in 1676 at the behest of Pasino Manzoni (1615-1680), son of Giacomo Maria, founder of the well-known Caleotto di Lecco lineage and great-great-grandfather of the writer Alessandro. The small temple stood next to the large palace built there by Pasino Manzoni and which, having been acquired by the Bonacina Manzoni family who emigrated to Venice, was later split up and divided into several homes. Inside, an altar with stucco decorations from the same period as the construction of the sacred building is preserved intact. A short distance away, on the washed out façade of an ancient house, stands out a large fresco dating back to the second half of the 15th century depicting the Madonna between Saints Anthony the Abbot and Sebastian. Going up towards the mountain, idyllic sections of the old nucleus survive, with traces of an ancient mill in the highest part of the hamlet.

Nice downhill trail with hairpin bends on scree
