カステッレットソプラティチノの絶景の山頂・トップ4

The climb from Mercallo is very challenging, even for an e-mtb, full of roots, rocks and ruts left by the rain. From Comabbio or Osmate the climb is much easier, also because it is asphalted up to halfway

Monte San Giacomo is the highest point of the Ticino Park (427 m) and rises at the foot of the Varesine Prealps. It has had a strategic importance since ancient times: the top of the mountain has annular terraces made up of dry stone walls that make one think of defense ditches of an Iron Age hillfort and there are also traces of prehistoric settlements.

Monte Pelada is a small mountain that rises above Lake Comabbio. You reach its peak (472 m) remaining in the undergrowth, but you can see some glimpses of the lake, between the trees.

Excellent crossing point a few minutes from the summit of the mountain which I recommend for those who have a MTB. Staying on this main path is also excellent for cycle touring.

Mount San Giacomo is the highest point in the Ticino Park. Very well kept and quiet place for walks in the woods. Also widely used for MTB.

Sass Malò is an erratic boulder whose legend tells that it was transported by witches during a flood and there is the den of the witch who eats matai (eats children).

The ruins are those of an ancient bar with an icebox, a terrace above and, even higher up, a round stone table which in summer was covered with a gazebo. By scanning the QR code you can read further information on this site.
