Another itinerary in full Christmas spirit: Nativity scenes on the water in Crodo, scattered throughout the various villages.
We found 39 out of 72, with some transfers by car.
The most beautiful? In front of the church in Crodo (with the Magi arriving on the ship), in the washhouse in Mozzio (clearly

With light snow forecast, a loop hike from Caldé, heading first to Monte Crocetta, then Rifugio Adamoli. A superb lunch next to the wood-fired stove and a descent through increasingly heavy snow. The atmosphere and feel of a true mountain, despite the modest altitude.

A beautiful circular tour through the wild Val Grande, including a visit to the now-abandoned village/alpine pasture of Pogallo, followed by a challenging climb to Alpe Pra, where, surprisingly, the Rifugio Amici delgi Alpini was open. Lunch followed by a descent to Cicogna, first along the beautiful
