그란테‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 산 정상

Beautiful view of the lake, Grigna and the surrounding valleys. Possibility of lunch in the numerous refuges at the foot of the mountain

The crossbeam of this summit cross is inscribed with an inscription that (freely translated) means in German: "In this sign you will win." The text, as well as the "Chi Rho" sign ("PX", an abbreviation for Christ in Greek) at the intersection of the vertical and horizontal beams, refer far back into the history of early Christianity: At the beginning of the fourth century, Emperor Constantine is said to have experienced this sign and the words in a vision before he defeated his rival emperor Maxentius at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge.

The Ghisallo climb is a legendary one.

From the summit of Monte Grona, the view extends not only to Lake Como, but also to Lake Lugano and the Lago di Piano in front of it. There are several ways to reach Monte Grona: a via ferrata, a steep path ("Sentiero Direttissima") and an easier panoramic path.

In dry weather and if you are sure-footed, this narrow, very steep and rocky path is beautiful.

VERY NICE PLACE FOR CYCLISTS

The Ghisallo hill (Ghisall in Lombard) is a road pass that connects Valassina with the upper part of the Lariano Triangle. The crossing point, at an altitude of 754 m above sea level, is part of the municipality of Magreglio. A few meters from the pass there is a small church: the sanctuary of the Madonna del Ghisallo. Its name (according to an ancient legend) derives from a certain Ghisallo who in medieval times was attacked by bandits in that place and made a vow to the Madonna to build a church in his honor if he escaped. The sanctuary of the Madonna del Ghisallo The Ghisallo climb (from the north side) is traditionally covered by the Giro di Lombardia and has also been included several times in the route of the Giro d'Italia. For this reason, the Madonna del Ghisallo is particularly venerated by cyclists, and on the initiative of the then parish priest Don Ermelindo Viganò (1906–1985), in 1949 Pope Pius XII proclaimed her the universal patroness of cyclists. Next to the sanctuary you can find the Cycling Museum and the "Monument to the cyclist", designed and created by Elio Ponti, sculptor from Ponzate, Como. Source: Wikipedia
