The places
Green, monuments and outdoors: these are the ingredients of our cycling route that winds Robecco sul Naviglio and its small but rich hamlets. A circular path of only 5.7 km is accessible to adults and children thanks to its asphalted and not trafficated roads. If you are a curious (and hungry) person you can also visit Agriturismo Molino Santa Marta.
Nature & art
The rural landscape is the peculiarity that leads here. Cultures vary here and there with evocative color differences.
During the months of July and August blonde wheat fields and green corn in bloom fields form natural walls at the side of the road. Small irrigation canals keep the fields and all for the variety forms of life that live in them alive. Along the way you can visit Robecco church of St. Giovanni Battista and Casterno church of St. Andrea Apostolo with its short but impressive shingle staircase bordered by fragrant lime threes.
