Tips

First flight of Alfio Caronti from Como who launched himself in the sky of the Lario, the first in Europe, supported only by what looked more like a kite than a hang glider.

It was November 4, 1971 when that triangular sail hovered in the sky of the Lario. "I slid at an insane speed with skis on my feet on the dry grass. There was a great slope. It took a lot of speed. I had dreamed of that moment a thousand times in the nights before the launch. But in that instant it was finally all true. The feet came off the ground. I was finally in flight. Then I quickly glided into the lake where the waterskiing champion Bruno Cassa was waiting for me, "says Caronti, always excited remembering those moments.

Monte Colmegnone is a very panoramic peak overlooking Lake Como. There are several paths to reach it: from the lake, starting from Laglio, Moltrasio or Carate Urio, from the Intelvi Valley (starting from Alpe Cerano) or from the road that climbs to Monte Bisbino.
