Cycling along the waterways

From Brianza's lakes to the canals of Milan, a cycle tour in surrounded by nature, villages and some surprising views

September brings a whole new air with it: the days become shorter, the sunshine is gentler, and the slow rhythm of nature invites you to travel around at a more leisurely pace.

It’s the perfect time to discover the cycle routes along the lakes, rivers and canals, where every turn of the pedals becomes an opportunity to watch the changing seasons and breathe in the cool autumn air.

The waterways between Milan and Brianza offer unique scenery: dark woods, quiet shores, and silent villages to accompany those who choose to explore the area by bike.

With ancient bridges, walkways over rivers, and small stopping points surrounded by green, in September the cycle paths invite you to slow down, look at the details, and let the panoramas astound you along the way.

Lake Annone cycle and pedestrian path (Lecco) — In the rolling hills of eastern Brianza, where the highlands meet the pre-Alps, Lake Annone extends before the eyes, smooth as a millpond, framed by woods and meadows. The cycle and pedestrian path forms a loop around the lake for some 14 kilometres, with its hidden landing points and memories of ancient villages.

Lake Garlate and Lake Olginate cycle route (Lecco) — Between the calm waters of the River Adda and the mountains reflected in the lakes, this route combines panoramic views, history, and literary references. Where the river Adda slows its course, the scenery becomes art, with traditional villages and hidden sanctuaries, mountain peaks in the background, and the views that inspired the unforgettable pages of Manzoni’s The Betrothed.

Lambro cycle route (Monza) — The River Lambro flows peacefully through Brianza, creating a route that crosses the Royal Villa of Monza, the Romanesque churches of Agliate, and small villages surrounded by woods and fields. The cycle route, which follows the river from Monza to Erba, is some 42 kilometres long, an invitation to let the rhythm of the waters set the pace as you discover landscapes that alternate nature with history and art.
