La Crocetta |
La Crocetta (450 m) is a little cross located on top of a hill above Menaggio from where can enjoy a lovely view of Menaggio and the central lake area. The walk leads through the woods over an easy mule-track.
- starting point: Croce 393 m (2 km from Menaggio) |
Route From the bus stop continue about 15 m on the main road then cross it and pick up the road in the direction of the golf course (there is a big sign). After about 300 m you turn left into “Via per la Crocetta” also called “Via Pigato”. After some bends the road ends and you continue on a wide track. Before arriving at the Crocetta you encounter some trenches. In fact they are part of the great defense line called “Linea Cadorna”, built in 1915 along the Swiss-Italian border, fearing a possible German offence. In the province of Como it extended from Monte Bisbino near Como to Sasso Cordona, Monte Galbiga and Monte Crocione and from there down to the Crocetta . Close by stands the little chapel dedicated to the “arm of the Alpini’“ near the view point of the Crocetta. |
