What to expect
You'll start the morning like a local, stopping at an authentic pasticceria to grab an Italian breakfast. From there, the route winds through Lecco's centre and surrounding lanes, mixing town exploration with quieter cycling paths. The highlight is the run east to Pescarenico—a genuine fishing community on Lake Como's shoreline—where you'll pause before heading to lunch. The restaurant sits right on the water with the Alps as backdrop. After pizza and wine, you'll cycle back along the lakeside to Lecco. The pace is leisurely, though you'll need moderate fitness and good cardiovascular health.
