Tips from the Community
In all tunnels of the cycle way of Val Brembana you should have appropriate lights as they are quite dark. In addition the best option is to have photochromatic glasses as entering in sunglasses can be dangerous as you see almost nothing. The road quality in each tunnel is quite good, but it is usually wet due to water infiltration. During summer the cool temperatures inside are to be enjoyed, but in other seasons it is cold there, so you have to be prepared with suitable clothing.

Stunning view, we hope they restore the old bridges because they are really beautiful, a suggestive passage. Remember your lights, the tunnels are lit but they would help other cyclists see you better!

The Basilica (or Church) of San Giorgio in Lemine in Almenno San Salvatore is one of the most important and pure examples of Romanesque architecture in Lombardy, famous for its cycle of 13th-14th century frescoes and for its recent reopening after 14 months of restoration. 🏛️ Identity and historical importance The Church of San Giorgio in Lemine, often called a "basilica" due to its three-nave structure, dates back to the 11th-12th century and is a masterpiece of Bergamasco Romanesque style. It stands in the ancient territory of Lemine, an area already important in Roman times, as evidenced by archaeological finds and remains discovered near the church. The building was part of a medieval village destroyed in 1443 by the Venetian Republic, which explains its current isolation in the countryside of Almenno San Salvatore.

The Brembana Valley cycle path is worth a visit at least once. Part of the route is currently closed due to construction of the TEB train.
