The Magical Woods Trail hosts the works of Giancarlo Volontè; thanks to its evocative landscape, the route transports those who walk it into a fairy-tale world, full of surprises and discoveries at every step, to be experienced with lightheartedness and curiosity.

From "ateinsubriaolona.it": "The word magic evokes fairytale atmospheres, often immersed in a woodland setting, a place populated by fantastical inhabitants and guardian of fables and wonders. The Magic of the Woods trail is a short path that begins in front of one of the two entrances to the Scientific Education Center and hosts the wooden works of Giancarlo Volontè. It winds through a Scots pine forest, transporting those who walk it into a fairytale world, full of surprises and discoveries at every step, to be experienced with lightheartedness and curiosity. Along the trail, you'll encounter elves and spirits carved from wood, as well as giant-sized insects and other animals. Giancarlo Volontè is a skilled wood sculptor, a longtime friend of the Park, and an eclectic Volunteer Ecological Guard who works for the Protected Area. Like any artist, he is able to unleash the communicative power of materials, in this case wood, extracting for the eyes of all that magic guarded by the majestic inhabitants of the forest. Near the Scientific Education Center, completing the Magic of the Forest trail, you can walk the F.A.T.A. Trail, a short circular route complete with educational panels and installations on the solar system.

Como's lakefront is perfect for a stroll amid history, villas, and nature.

The lakefront also features numerous benches where you can sit and admire this enchanting panorama.

One of Giovanni Guareschi's (1908-1968) wonderfully told short stories, popular far beyond the borders of Italy, featuring his two protagonists, Don Camillo and Peppone, is titled "Autumn." While most of his stories have a humorous tone, this one deals with a serious topic: the national commemoration of the fallen on November 4th. In a heated discussion with the priest, the communist mayor, Peppone, expresses his views as follows: "The people are fed up with all these wars and victories. The people know very well what war is and don't need speeches and appeals that glorify it." Don Camillo shook his head. "You're on the wrong track, Peppone. Nobody wants to glorify war. It's simply a matter of paying tribute and expressing gratitude to all those who suffered and lost their lives in this war." (G. Guareschi)
