Οι 8 πιο εκπληκτικές κορυφές Boca

Η κατάβαση της pelosa είναι φανταστική, ένα υπέροχο single track, πολύ ταλαιπωρημένο στο κάτω μέρος, αρκετά απαιτητικό αλλά πολύ διασκεδαστικό, εγώ κάνω αυτή τη διαδρομή ξεκινώντας από το Maggiore για να φτάσω μέχρι την Colma di Valduggia, όπου πάντα σταματώ για ένα σνακ στον Aldo στο Circolo ACli, φανταστική πίτσα παιδιά.

small chapel with a cross at the top

Breathtaking view of Lake Orta, from up there you can see everything, Mottarone, Omegna, Orta San Giulio etc etc

A beautiful renovation in a peaceful place

nice place also great for pet picnic

At the top of Mount Barro (581 m) there is an ancient medieval village, born around the church of Santa Maria Annunziata. Probably built on the ruins of a castle, this church preserves an apse with a stone dated 1484. The houses, made of local stone and close to each other, were once home to farmers who cultivated fields and vineyards. The last inhabitant left the village in 1977, marking the end of its rural life. Today, every 1st May, Mount Barro comes alive with the traditional Fiora festival. This popular event, inspired by the ancient gesture of lovers exchanging bouquets of flowers, celebrates the community's first spring outing, transforming the village into a place of celebration and memories.

I recommend the first itinerary, leaving the car at the cemetery of Boca, then following the path indicated here for the Pelosa, then Croce del Teso, continuing until the chapel of S.Bernardo, then returning through Motto della Capretta and passing by the ca' dal luv, now a ruin and by the 43rd partisan refuge, ref. "Il Monte Antico di A. Orsi", you exit onto the Traversagna, then continue left to the Sanctuary of Boca and return to the car.

Always nice to get there and on clear days it's an excellent panoramic point.
