View of the San Michele Bridge from Salita del Toscano

Highlight • Viewpoint

The San Michele bridge, also known as the Calusco bridge, Paderno bridge or Röthlisberger bridge, is an iron arch bridge, with mixed rail-road traffic, which connects the towns of Paderno d'Adda and Calusco d'Adda crossing a gorge of the Adda river.

A masterpiece recognized as one of the symbols of Italian industrial archaeology, in 2017 the bridge was nominated to be included in the UNESCO list of world heritage sites

Church of Santa Barbara at Borgo del Canto

Highlight • Religious Site

The church of Santa Barbara is a hidden treasure of Mount Canto, located a few meters from the remains of the ghost town of Canto. The church is the only surviving building kept in perfect condition. It offers a spectacular panoramic view, where on very clear weather days you can admire the Apennines to the south and the chain of Alps from Monviso to the Bernina glaciers to the west and north. The church is surrounded by an open space with benches and trees, an ideal place for a break or a picnic.

Abbey of Saint Egidio in Fontanella

Highlight • Religious Site

The Abbey of Sant'Egidio in Fontanella is a fascinating place full of history. The church suddenly appears at the end of a winding road up the eastern slope of Mount Canto. Its architecture is simple, with a sobriety typical of poor foundations in the province. It can also be visited inside.

A pleasant non-working day with Marco Amex on the paths of Mount Canto, with his multi-purpose backpack and his water basket always useful in case of sudden drought 😁
