Guided excursion: the petrifying springs of Montevecchia Park

We’ll discover how the forest can hide absolutely unique and ever-changing views in a small space, in a riot of life and colors marked by autumn. At the start, we’ll meet Binario Vivo, the bar, or rather, the warm welcome point, located on platform 1 of the raiway station, an inclusive project managed by the Paso Cooperative. Here, in addition to a delicious breakfast, you can also purchase a packed lunch. All Binario Vivo products come from local farms. But be careful! No plastic bottles are for sale. You can, however, have your water bottle refilled.
We will depart from the Cernusco Lombardone train station and head towards Montevecchia Alta, before descending into the woods and crossing the site of the petrifying springs in the heart of the Montevecchia Park.
