フォベッロの絶景の山頂・トップ13

Not just one cross greets the (mountain) hiker up here, but a group of three crosses – as the name "Monte TRE CROCI" suggests – we find on this mountain. A wayside cross or summit cross commemorates Jesus Christ, and always the one in the center. The two slightly smaller crosses standing to the sides were not erected here without reason: According to biblical tradition, Jesus Christ was not condemned to death by crucifixion and executed alone, but together with two criminals (see, for example, the Evangelist Luke 22:33): + "They came to the place called the Place of the Skull, and there they crucified him and the criminals, one on his right and the other on his left." +

Panoramic and peaceful excursion

Top location to look forward to and enjoy. With a bit of luck, cows and goats will keep you company.

Excellent support and refreshment point to better manage the beautiful excursions in this area. Check that it is open.

Massa del Turlo is a peak located on the watershed between Valsesia and Valstrona and on which an iron cross stands. From here you can enjoy a beautiful panorama of Monte Rosa, the Lombardy lakes and a large number of towns in Val Strona and Valsesia.

Great food, simple but clean accommodation, very nice hostess
