Lake Monzoro is a renowned sports fishing center located in Cusago, in the province of Milan, just 4 kilometers from the Lombard capital. Originally created as a gravel quarry, the complex is today a green oasis formed by two large bodies of spring water fed by fresh underground springs from Monte Rosa, which guarantee exceptionally blue, clear, and deep waters.

The Naviglio Grande in Abbiategrasso is a crucial hydraulic and historical hub: here the canal makes an elbow bend, turning east towards Milan, and crosses history with the Castelletto di Abbiategrasso and the Naviglio di Bereguardo. It is an ideal area for cycle tourism, with flat routes connecting the nature of the Ticino to the city.
