WHY THIS HIKE

The Brianza High Trail, stage 2

We will walk together along the Sentierone della Brianza, one of the most fascinating routes in the area: an ancient path that for centuries has connected rural villages, farmhouses and countryside, and which today offers a perfect balance between nature, history and surprising views.

Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

A medium-length excursion, without technical difficulties, ideal for those who want to immerse themselves in the landscape at the right pace, letting themselves be guided step by step.

The Second Stage: panoramas, history and nature

We will start from the Olgiate Molgora railway station to climb towards Monte di Brianza, reaching places full of charm such as the Hermitage of San Genesio and the suggestive village of Campsirago.

Along the ridge we will walk on a continuous and panoramic path that offers a complete view of the Brianza: on one side the profile of the inhabited centers, on the other woods and natural areas that still preserve a precious ecological balance.

The Sentierone is not just a path: it is a true "green infrastructure", a natural corridor that connects traditional landscapes and protected areas, telling the most authentic soul of this territory.

The stage will end in Airuno, conveniently connected thanks to the railway station: a perfect, carefree ending to return in peace.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Anna, an environmental hiking guide and a repentant ex-office worker. I run group hikes in Lombardy, mainly in the provinces of Lecco, Como and Sondrio, and the reason is always the same: to spread as widely as I can that sense of wonder towards nature and towards this precious, beautiful planet of ours. What I enjoy most is watching someone enjoy a view without a worry in their head and go home having learned something new. It happens often — and it happens better if there's one of my home-made biscuits to nibble along the way. 🍪 Join one of my hikes and see for yourself. See you in the mountains, Guidders!
