The cliffs along Lago di Castro are one of the most evocative (and little-known) corners of the Ligurian-Emilian Apennines.

I leaned my Triban 120 against the bench, but the lake was hidden by vegetation. Probably the bike is the first decathlon to reach san Defendente

San Defendente offers an extraordinary view of the lake, from Lovere to Monte Isola to the southern shore, and of the Corna Trentapassi. For this reason, it is among the most beloved places in Solto Collina, a destination for walks and for a popular festival on the first Sunday of July. The church is currently managed by the local Alpini group. Documents from 1574 attest to bequests for the construction or renovation of the building, which was guarded over the centuries by laypeople residing in the structure annexed to the church.

The SP469, also known as the "Strada degli Orridi," is a particularly scenic route due to the tunnels carved into the rock and the sheer cliffs overlooking the lake, between Riva di Solto and Castro. It's ideal for those who enjoy panoramic views of the lake, but be aware of other road users.

The small church of San Defendente sits perched on a rocky outcrop high above Lake Iseo. From here, a breathtaking panoramic view opens up over the lake, the Corna Trentapassi, and the surrounding mountains. Especially at sunrise or sunset, the scenery transforms into a magical play of light – a perfect place to linger, marvel, and take photos. The short, but at times steep, climb is more than rewarded by the view. Several benches and picnic tables next to the church invite you to rest. Surrounded by nature, with expansive views of the water and mountains, this spot is a true highlight of any hike on Lake Iseo. Highlights: • Stunning viewpoint with a 180-degree view of the lake • Historic San Defendente Church (easily accessible) • Perfect for photo stops and picnic breaks • Also suitable for families • Particularly atmospheric at sunrise or sunset Trail conditions: Well-maintained hiking trails, steep and rocky in places; surefootedness is helpful. Sturdy shoes are recommended. Children ages 7 and up can easily manage the climb. Tip: Those who start early will be rewarded with morning mist over the lake and fantastic light. Tip: Those who set off early will be rewarded with morning mist over the lake and fantastic light.
