      Renowned for the famous "Muro di Sormano", a challenging climb that is part of some editions of the Giro di Lombardia, Colma di Sormano is a place appreciated by cyclists for its gradient and the challenge it represents. The area is also an ideal starting point for excursions to Monte San Primo, the highest peak of the Larian Triangle. The panoramic path that leads to Monte San Primo offers spectacular views of the lake and the surrounding mountains.

      In addition, Colma di Sormano is home to a small astronomical observatory, where enthusiasts can participate in evenings of sky observation, taking advantage of the low light pollution of the area. The area is also perfect for moments of relaxation, thanks to its large lawns, ideal for picnics or simply enjoying the surrounding nature. The presence of a restaurant and a bar makes the location even more welcoming for visitors, thus completing an excellent visit experience.

        You have to arrive really early to find
        a parking place. From here you can have a walk of 16 km to Monte San Primo.
