L'Approdo Calipolis is a natural oasis and a revitalized rest area located along the cycle-pedestrian path of the Olona Valley, in the territory of the municipalities of Fagnano Olona and Gorla Maggiore. Managed entirely by volunteers from the Associazione Calimali, this area was born from the environmental recovery of a disused industrial area (the former purification tanks of the CTS company) and is today a very popular meeting point immersed in the greenery of the Parco del Medio Olona.

Beautiful cycle path along the Olona River. Several points of interest: the Torba Monastery (FAI) and, with a short detour, the Castelseprio Archaeological Park with the beautiful church of Santa Maria Foris Portas.

The MTB trail is also under construction. There are some container shops down there (I think), so I imagine there will also be services and/or a fee for use. We'll see, but it's a great initiative anyway!

A smooth route with no significant elevation changes, suitable for everyone. The connection with the Lanza Valley cycle path is under construction, but unfortunately, there is a lot of asphalt.
