  • The Old Connection Roads Between Moltrasio and Laglio
    The old connection roads 2 between Moltrasio and Laglio Easy walk along old footpaths and stairways of the western side of the lake from the boat dock in Moltrasio to Laglio . ITINERARY: Moltrasio - Carate Urio - Laglio WALKING TIME ONE WAY: 1hr 30min ASCENT: 120 m DIFFICULTY: Easy TRAIL SIGNS: Absent CONNECTIONS: - by boat: from Como to Moltrasio every 30 min - by bus: bus C 10 or C 20, “via lago” bus stop Moltrasio Pontile Return from Laglio bus C10/20 ROUTE: from the boat pier at Moltrasio turn left along the main road and pass by the monument to Vincenzo Bellini, the Sicilian composer who lived here for a long time. Turn right up via Raschi to reach the centre of the village. This stairway is known as “the Scala Sancta” because it was used for holy processions and maybe also because it seems so long and steep. But it is not that tiring if you go up slowly and take your time to enjoy the views it gives of the village below and, on the other side of the lake, Torno, the manneristic villa Pliniana and the mountains Boletto and Bolettone. At the parish church follow via Curiè, piazza Umberto I and via Bianchi along the right bank of the stream and head up the valley by passing under the viaduct of the main road. As you reach Villa Memy bear right to reach Tosnacco , the highest suburb of Moltrasio (312 m). Cross the asphalted road and continue uphill following the way marks of the mountain trails. At a junction near the fountains, continue straight on via Marconi until you reach a T-junction with a stairway.

  • Il Lago Di Como Il Lago Di Como
    IlIl lagolago didi ComoComo percorsipercorsi sull’acquasull’acqua Storia e storie Itinerari Ritratti Notizie di viaggio Numeri utili Servizio per i residenti, meraviglia per i turisti Da sempre i laghi del nord del nostro Paese, costituiscono forte attrazione per il gradevole contesto ambientale e paesaggistico in cui sono inseriti. Il lago di Como, di manzoniana memoria, colpisce per la singolarità delle rive, “a fiordo”, e per il graduale incunearsi del bacino lacustre in zona montana, accompagnato nel suo percorso dalla “Regina”, l’antica strada che ne delinea la sponda occidentale. Il lago di Garda è adagiato in una conca attorniata da colline ricche di uliveti e limoneti che prosperano grazie alla mitezza del microclima gardesano contribuendo a fare del lago un polo di significativo interesse turistico. Il lago Maggiore conserva un’elegante atmosfera “fin de siècle”, enfatizzata dall’eleganza delle ville rivierasche e dalla particolare bellezza delle Isole Borromee. La forte urbanizzazione sviluppatasi nelle aree dei laghi ha originato un esponenziale aumento della domanda di servizi come quello, prioritario, del trasporto pubblico locale a seguito della congestione del traffico nelle arterie stradali limitrofe ai bacini lacustri. Da qui l’importanza, sempre più crescente, di trasporto alternativo come quello offerto dalla Navigazione Laghi, presente da più di un secolo come realtà aziendale prima privata e poi pubblica, i cui battelli collegano proficuamente le sponde dei nostri laghi. A seguito dello sviluppo registrato nel contesto socio-produttivo delle nostre zone, la Navigazione Laghi ha ritenuto utile la realizzazione di queste nuove guide che si propongono come ausilio per i residenti e i visitatori delle nostre belle regioni augurandosi che possano fornire un valido servizio per l’utenza.

The beautiful villa was built at the end of XVII century in a natural basin between lake and mountains. The architect created for the Clericis an important but sober building, with an Italian garden decorated with sculptures, stairs and fountains. In 1801 Gian Battista Sommariva, famous politician, businessman and patron of arts, bought the villa.

In the second half of the century Princess Marianne of Nassau bought the villa and gave it as a present to her daughter Carlotta in occasion of her wedding. Her husband was passionate about botany and made a lot of improvements and new additions to the park that became more famous for its botanical richness and the rhododendrons’ and azaleas spring flowering.
