Large plantation of strobi pines (Pinus strobus) owned by the Proverbio carpentry shop, based in the Saronnese area. The plantation was built in the 1950s and 1960s by the Vita-Mayer paper mill in Cairate, whose owners lived in the nearby Abbiate. Following the bankruptcy of that industry in 1977, the plantation was taken over by the current owners.

After more than sixty years, this artificial forest is still immediately distinguishable by the alignment of the strobi rows and their dominance over the other tree species thanks to the conspicuous shading produced by the foliage, a factor that determines the almost total absence of undergrowth.

Piana del Fogoreggio

Highlight • Natural

Near the Fogoreggio farmhouse, the path that connects Tradate to Appiano Gentile overlooks the pastures of the horses of the San Bartolomeo stables for a while, temporarily abandoning the forests of the Pineta park.

Via Pracallo Trail

Highlight • Trail

We are in the area of the Carambola trail! For these routes, a good workout is recommended, a cushioned mtb, perhaps better an eMTB to have fun without excessive fatigue.
