Gridone/Limidario

I hiked the route from Cannobio today. Breakfast in St. Agatha, then the church of St. Luca, Alpe Marcalone, and then up to the summit. The rocky, stepped climb is rewarded with a magnificent view. It's deeply relaxing. It's recommended to use hiking poles for support, though, as there are many loose stones and large steps. It was almost 1,100 meters in elevation, and I'm 64.

Beautiful place and nature, fantastic view on Lake Maggiore, regular and very nice uphill path to the refuge.

It's definitely worth stopping by. The ham and cheese platters are delicious, and then you can enjoy the magnificent view. We cycled up on our mountain bikes; with battery support, it's manageable, but without it, it's quite challenging. At the beginning of April 2025, the hut was open from 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Capanna Al Legn is an Alpine refuge located at 1,802 meters above sea level on the slopes of Gridone, above Brissago, in the Canton of Ticino. Inaugurated in 1995, the modern structure is spread over three floors and offers 12 beds, a kitchen equipped with wood and gas stoves, hot and cold water, toilets and a shower. The hut is accessible all year round via paths that start from the Brissago mountains, with a travel time of about two hours. From its panoramic position, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of Lake Maggiore and the Brissago Islands. The use of a sleeping bag is mandatory, available on site at a cost of CHF 7. For information and reservations, you can contact the number +41 79 823 98 07.

Nice panoramic point with access on two sides. Not easy to cycle due to the high erosion of the path that has created a single large canal

San Bartolomeo in Montibus stands alone halfway between Cinzago and Formine. If you are climbing from Cinzago towards Formine, you can take a break here: from this point on the path is all downhill. The church, with a Latin cross plan, houses precious 16th-century paintings. Due to its isolated position, surrounded by pastures and mountain pastures, it was a place of worship dedicated to the farmers and shepherds of the area. Every year, in August, the community of the nearby villages organizes the Feast of San Bartolomeo. Next to the church is a small cemetery.

The San Bartolomeo in Montibus stands alone halfway between Cinzago and Formine. Anyone who is on the way up from Cinzago to Formine can be happy: from now on it is downhill. The church has the floor plan of a Latin cross. Inside there are important paintings from the 16th century. Due to its isolated location near pastures and alpine meadows, it was considered the church of farmers and alpine shepherds. Every year in August the Bartholomew Festival takes place, which is organized by the inhabitants of the surrounding villages. Next to the church there is a small cemetery enclosed by a wall. The inhabitants of Formine found their final resting place in this cemetery.
