WHY THIS HIKE

From Imbersago to Stallazzo, Leonardo's footsteps

Following the placid flow of the Adda River, the walk from Imbersago to Stallazzo becomes an experience suspended between history and nature. Leonardo da Vinci was fascinated by the swirling waters and the power of the mills in this valley, and even today the traveler's gaze rediscovers the same magic in the luminous reflections and cool shadows of poplars and willows.

Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

The path is an invitation to slow down: to listen to the song of the birds, the rustling of the leaves, the silent rhythm of footsteps. Every stretch is an encounter with a landscape that preserves memory and beauty, capable of recounting ancient secrets to those who know how to stop and observe.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Elena, an environmental hiking guide with a passion for nature, long walks and wellbeing. I take groups out to discover a place through mindful walking, where a slow pace turns into listening, presence and connection. I run holistic routes that combine hiking with yoga practice outdoors, yoga trekking weekends, moments of poetry in the landscape and sensory experiences such as tastings of local produce. My passion for art and photography guides how I look at things: every outing is a chance to catch the details, the light and the atmospheres that tell the deep dialogue between people and nature. I believe in hiking that goes deep, stays accessible and restores you, connecting body, mind and landscape: everything I offer is an invitation to slow down, observe, feel… and find yourself again. 🌿 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
