Bellagio, the Grigna. After admiring the panorama we will descend towards  the Bocchetta and then continue towards the Comana (1,210 meters),  taking a track of path in the woods with a rather steep ascent for a  difference in height of about 80m.

Route7 km, Duration: 6 hours, difficulty average, Our  excursion starts from the Breglia mountains following the “Panoramic Path”  and climbs through birch and oak woods until reaching the Menaggio  Refuge (1383 m, a real balcony on the Lario). From the Menaggio refuge you  can reach the top of Monte Grona through two routes, which have the same  difference in height (349 m) but different times and difficulties. 1st Normal  Route (about 1h15m) The route begins behind the refuge, follow the signs  for “Via Normale” until you reach the junction S. Amate-Monte Grona, where  you take the path on the left which, through some climbs, leads to the  locality Forcoletta (1627 m). From here, turn left and go up a very steep and  exposed ridge. In a short time you reach the top of Monte Grona, using a  metal cable to overcome the final jump. 2nd Via Direttissima (about 1h) The  route always starts behind the refuge but you follow the sign indicating Via  Ferrata. After a short time you arrive at a small opening and turn right  following the signs for the Via Direttissima and climb up the steep south  gully; the path is more inclined and exposed than that of the Via Normale. At  the end of the gully, turn left, continuing to climb for a few meters through  the rocks, facing a short stretch with chains that does not present particular  difficulties. In a short time you reach the top of Monte Grona, using a metal  cable to overcome the final jump. In both cases, you can go back along the  same ascent route or alternatively take the other route to return to the  Menaggio Refuge, then descend to the Monti di Breglia along the same  ascent route. From 1 to 4 hours the price is 400€ – from 4 to 8 hours the  price is 550€.

Route 10km, difficulty: easy, It starts from  the village of Breglia, first of all going to visit the Madonna di Breglia, a  church placed in a dominant position. You then return to the village where  the route is marked and follows the ancient mule tracks that connect the  various mountains. After a downhill stretch, which helps to overcome the Val  di Greno, you arrive at Carcente, still partially inhabited where you can visit  the museum of the rural house which preserves tools, uses and traditional  costumes. Continue pointing uphill on the mule track that reaches the  Carcente mountains. The mule track crosses an airy forest of Castani and is  very well preserved. From the mountains of Carcente you can reach the  mountains of Treccione in a few minutes, located on a large and sunny  natural balcony. You return by mule track to the Carcente mountains and by  another path to Breglia. From 1 to 4 hours the price is 400€ – from 4 to 8  hours the price is 550€. 

Route 7 km, Duration: 6 hours, difficulty: easy. The departure  is from San Nazzaro in Val Cavargna. At the end of the town, take a small  road to the right that climbs narrowly back towards the hamlet of Bubegno.  Once upstream from the small church of S. Antonio, take the asphalted road 

which, crossing a beautiful pine forest, leads to the locality of Tecchio (1300  m), a small hamlet of houses with particularly sloping roofs: you can park  your car nearby . Continue on foot along the pastoral dirt road that climbs  the open slope up to the crossroads on the right leads to the Croce di  Campo Refuge (1739 m) clearly visible from below. Once you reach the  refuge, continue along the ridge above which after a short tear becomes  semi-flat. Continue for about 200 meters on this coast, then leave it out and  take a track that branches off to the right. Continue crossing for a long time,  along the hillside, the SE side of the Cima Pianchette. The track is always  clearly evident and leads to Bocchetta di Sebol (1986 m), at the base of the  W ridge of Tabòr. Go up this grassy ridge and soon you will reach the  summit of Mount Tabòr (2079 m). You then return to the aforementioned  Bocchetta and faithfully follow the ESE swinging ridge of Cima Pianchette,  without any difficulty, until you reach the top of the second peak of the  traverse (2158 m). The path that requires some attention begins now. Take  the signposted path downhill, which remains about twenty meters below the  NW ridge of Cima Pianchette. Carefully descend an exposed stretch  equipped with chains and you will soon arrive at Bocchetta di Piazza  Vacchera (2065 m). The aided exposed section can be bypassed, following  the easy line of the ridge. Now begins the ascent of the ESE ridge of Pizzo  di Gino. Indeed, you always follow the marked path that remains under the  ridge and only in some final stretches on it. Continue on the ascent, paying  attention to the slightly exposed sections, until you reach the summit  building, where the track ends. From here go up a short but steep grassy  slope that leads to the ESE ridge. Go around a rocky outcrop to the right  and through easy rocks you reach the summit of Pizzo di Gino (2245 m).  From Pizzo di Gino you go down the normal route of this peak, initially along  the rocky W ridge which then becomes a very wide grassy slope. You go  down until you cross the wide path that crosses under the SW and then S  side of the mountain and you arrive at Alpe Piazza Vacchera (1774 m). Now  following the unpaved service road to this pasture (which climbs up from  San Nazzaro) you return to the Croce di Campo Refuge and from here, as  for the climb, you return to San Nazzaro. From 1 to 4 hours the price is 400€ – from 4 to 8 hours the price is 550€.

The  proposed itinerary takes place mostly on a path and cart track. The path  climbs steeply in the first section, and then continues to steadily gain  altitude.Once in the locality of Pozzuolo, a small agglomeration of huts  continue until you reach the trail markers in Monte Corna, (760 m). therefore  you begin to go up the ridge of the Sasso di Musso. The path continues  between limestone outcrops and after having passed Monte Crocetta on the  left, you continue to climb steeply until you reach the top of Sasso di  Tegano, where a meteorological station has been placed (1140 m). San  Bernardo, which can be reached in a few minutes (1105 m), upstream of the  church, on the path to Mount Bregagno, there is a cool fountain. After a  necessary break, continue following the path under the church and past a  chapel with a crucifix carved in wood, you will soon reach the dirt road and  descend through woods and small clusters of huts to our starting point.  From 1 to 4 hours the price is 400€ – from 4 to 8 hours the price is 550€
