Lambro River crossing

Highlight • Bridge

"Attraverssamento del fiume Lambro";
The Lambro is a river in the Italian region of Lombardy. The total length of the river is approximately 130 kilometers.
The source of the Lambro, Menaresta is located on the flank of Monte San Primo (1685 m), the highest mountain of the Triangolo Lariano that divides Lake Como in two. The first kilometers the river flows through the Valassina, then the Lambro crosses Lake Pusiano and later flows further into the Brianza. Between Lake Pusiano and the city of Monza, the river and the surrounding area have been declared a protected area (Parco Regionale della Valle del Lambro). Arriving at the conurbation of Milan, the river flows straight through Monza, and past the cities of Sesto San Giovanni and Milan. The last kilometers the Lambro flows through the flat Po Valley past the town of Melegnano and eventually flows into the Po river in Orio Litta.

We start early when the thermometer reads 3🥶 but we don't let that discourage us, last greeting at the bridge and we start a nice gravel stretch 🚴🏻‍♂️ along the embankment. Leaving Pavia, we enter the undergrowth that you don't expect, but we are in the Ticino Park after all, and after passing a fun almost Single Track we emerge …
