エルバの峡谷・トップ10

The Corno Centrale Canyon, located near Canzo, is a spectacular natural formation that develops within the suggestive mountain environment of the Lombard Prealps. This canyon is the result of the erosion of rocks by water over the millennia, creating deep gorges and rock formations of great charm. The path to reach the canyon is immersed in nature and passes through woods and paths that offer panoramic views of the valley below. The area is perfect for excursions and trekking, with itineraries suitable for different levels of experience. While exploring the canyon, you can admire waterfalls, pools of crystal clear water and a rich variety of flora and fauna typical of the area. The Corno Centrale Canyon is an ideal destination for those seeking an experience in contact with nature, far from the frenzy of the city. It is advisable to visit it in spring or autumn, when the climate is milder and the colors of the landscape are particularly vivid. The area is easily accessible from Canzo, which also offers starting points for other excursions in the area.

The Nesso Gorge, the highlight of the place and probably the most famous on Lake Como.

Beautiful road on the lake, from Nesso you take the famous climb towards Colma di Sormano, and there is also a very beautiful ravine.

Large crack between two walls of the central horn, it is crossed on both sides by historic climbing routes, some dating back to 1950

Small canyon formed between the wall and pillars of the Corno Centrale of Canzo.

The most evocative part of the Nesso ravine is certainly the famous Civera bridge, symbol of this place. The ravine is formed by two rivers that converge, the Tuf and the Nosé, which form a steep waterfall that ends up in the waters of the lake.

The stream divides the valley in two like a real canyon, creating a dense network of crevasses which over time have been connected by thick vegetation and, in the less accessible points, by man with wooden bridges. From the source flows the Bova torrent which, descending along the valley of the same name, flows into the Piana di Erba to then bend southwards and finally flows, as an tributary, into the Lambro river.

Wooden staircase that allows you to overcome the rocky overhang that from the bottom of the Bova valley rises above the ravine of Caino. Elevation of about fifteen meters. three ramps alternating with 2 landings. Possibility of securing to a fixed steel rope with harness. Access path protected by some chains, less demanding than the iron staircase opposite. Once you have passed the difference in level, you follow a path protected in the most exposed sections by a parapet. The path allows you to admire the gorge from above and join the path that arrives from the iron staircase. It is possible to descend from the iron staircase by completing a ring at the bottom of the valley or to climb further towards Mount Puscio or continue halfway up the slope towards the hermitage of San Salvatore
