The center of Lecco is just a 15-minute walk from Hotel Promessi Sposi.

Nestled between the serene waters of the lake and the majestic surrounding mountains, the city boasts a centuries-old history, linked to industrial excellence and commercial success in the metallurgy and iron sector. In addition, the silk production tradition is valued through the museums dedicated to silk.

Lecco is also famous as the city of The Betrothed (Hotel Promessi Sposi), the famous novel by Alessandro Manzoni that has made the city a place of pilgrimage for literature lovers.

The route can be up to 30 km long, but it can easily be divided into independent sections.

The simplest and most scenic route, about 10 km long, follows the lake starting from Malgrate, crosses the Kennedy bridge, and continues to Lecco, keeping to the left on the lakeside promenade until you reach Pradello in the municipality of Abbadia Lariana, where the Lido dell'Orsa Maggiore is located. In the central part of Lecco, you'll find the main squares with shops and bars.

The longer route, about 20 km long, also starts from Malgrate, but at the end of the Kennedy bridge, it turns right and follows the course of the Adda River, which shortly after flows into Lake Garlate. It then runs along the coast to the municipality of Calolziocorte, crosses the bridge that leads to Olginate, and returns to the west bank of the lake up to Malgrate, passing through the municipalities of Garlate, Pescate, and Galbiate.

You can combine the two routes for a total of about 30 km of cycling.

Ideal for a full day or two half-days.

The mule track that starts from the village and leads to the top of Mount Cornizzolo crosses an evocative clearing, hosting the precious Benedictine complex of San Pietro al Monte, an authentic masterpiece of Romanesque architecture in Lombardy.

The path, although challenging, is characterized by a pleasant coolness thanks to its wooded location, making it particularly suitable for excursions during spring, autumn, or the early hours of the morning on hot summer days, when the relative altitude helps to make the climate more pleasant.

Numerous testimonies report Leonardo da Vinci's presence in the Lecco area, Lake Como, and the Adda Valley up to Milan, where he arrived in 1482. Here he created very important works, including the Virgin of the Rocks, in which he sets his characters in a shady place enclosed by large rocks where light barely filters through in an almost unreal atmosphere.

In Imbersago, 20 km from Hotel Promessi Sposi, there is the ferry designed by Leonardo that connects the two banks of the Adda River in a suggestive natural setting.
