Looking for MTB and gravel routes in Brianza, near Monza, Carate Brianza, Biassono or Sovico? This collection focuses on the province of Monza and Brianza, with seven archive proposals: Monza Park, links along the Lambro, the Pegorino valley and one ride documented for both MTB and gravel. Each entry has a map and downloadable GPX track.

Brianza extends beyond the provincial boundaries: the Sovico proposal reaches Montevecchia in the Lecco area, and is explicitly labelled as crossing into another province. The other rides are introduced using the places documented in their entries, without treating a province field as proof of every point on the track. To choose between mountain biking and gravel riding near Monza, read the terrain descriptions: a singletrack or cycle-path section does not classify the entire route.

“Best” is an editorial selection across areas and ride characteristics, not a difficulty ranking or a recent field inspection.

The collection is in English. Route entries are labelled “in Italian” where an English version is not available.

Map and GPX in Italian

Before choosing your ride

Where can I find the maps and GPX tracks?

Open “Map and GPX” on a card to view the route entry, map and download button (“Scarica GPX” on Italian pages). Distances are estimates calculated from the available files; separate segments are not joined in the calculation.

Is a shorter route also easier?

Distance alone does not indicate difficulty. Read the account to assess climbs, terrain, technical sections, bike pushing or carrying and any lifts. For files containing multiple tracks, the displayed length is their combined distance.

Can I ride these routes on an e-MTB?

A GPX track does not establish e-MTB suitability. Consider climbing, battery range, unrideable sections and local rules; where lifts are involved, also check bike-transport conditions.

Do the tracks reflect current conditions?

These are archive tracks from different dates. Before setting off, check access, restrictions, weather and trail conditions with local sources. GPX estimates are not a field verification.
