Popular around Cernusco Lombardone
Christiane Völkel has posed the question of inner balance and greater serenity to herself and her readership. Perhaps her answer will also be helpful to the hiker / biker who pauses a little before this sacred wayside shrine: „... and by letting God have the freedom to let His will be done, not mine. What is needed for this is patience with myself and the courage to take a new first step: towards myself, my neighbor, and God. And to place my worries in God's hands and trust Him.“ May every cross erected along the roads and paths of places, in fields and forests, as well as on mountain peaks, be understood as a renewed invitation from God to entrust our human worries and needs to Him.

Be careful, it is forbidden to ride a bike from the top of the cypress trees. If the guards (who are looking through binoculars) catch you, you will be fined. In itself, it is worth going up on foot. The place is shrouded in legend. The hill of the cypress trees, a sort of natural sanctuary surrounded by 12 cypress trees. In 2001, through aerial surveys, a very bizarre coincidence was noticed. The area has 3 stepped pyramids, of equal slope, arranged quite close together, as if to simulate an astronomical observatory or a sacred-religious place. The first of the three pyramids is precisely that of the cypresses. Once you reach the top, you can enjoy a beautiful view, there is a sort of small stone altar and it is already a good place to take some photographs. Then you begin to gently descend along path 11 and you can reach the second of the pyramids of Montevecchia, the pyramid of Belvedere Cereda. It is a bare pyramid, very suggestive that allows you to observe the Curone park from the highest point. It is thought that the Celts used the pyramid as an astronomical observatory.
