Five panoramic viewing points in Brianza

 

Do you think you know all there is to know about Brianza? Get ready to see it from another viewpoint, or  rather from five different viewing points.

 

Often, in our daily lives and from down in our streets, we can’t see just how much beauty is all around us. Perhaps that's why we are so fond of viewing points, those raised areas where it is possible to look differently at the world, and where everything seems to take on a whole new meaning. This is an itinerary with five different points from which to enjoy the natural scenery of Brianza, where you will see familiar settings, roads you have crossed, and peaks you have maybe just seen in your schoolbooks. Whether after a trip into the mountains or while out on a stroll along the lake, from up there in these panoramic viewing points between Milan, Monza, Como and Lecco, you will see this part of Lombardy from unique vantage points. Keep your eyes wide open, and off we go!
