Bocchetta Piattè di Vazzeda

The largest basin of the Brianza lakes, a few kilometres from Lecco

    Let's continue to Porlezza, a popular tourist destination at the north-eastern end of the lake, which can be reached by taking the Strada Statale 340 Regina road to Argegno and then crossing the Val d'Intelvi.   An embarkation point for lake cruises in the summer months, out of season it offers a more relaxed and charming atmosphere. The parish church dedicated to San Vittore, one of the 57 mediaeval parish churches of the ancient archdiocese of Milan, is well worth a visit, while a few kilometres from its centre, in the direction of Menaggio, we find Lake Piano, a nature reserve and EU Site of Community Importance, which must not be missed. Easy to ride and suitable for everyone, the 13.5-kilometre Porlezza-Menaggio cycle path links Lake Ceresio with Lake Como.  (Ph: wikipedia.org)

Be enchanted by Menaggio, marvelous town on Lake Como

The most unmissable event in Ponte di Legno - Passo Del Tonale is the moonlight snowshoe walk. But this is not the only opportunity to discover the Upper Camonica Valley at your own pace.   The Ponte di Legno - Tonale ski area is a fairy-tale kingdom where you can venture into the enchanting scenery of the Upper Camonica Ali in your snowshoes. Snowshoes are de rigueur at the "Caspolada al chiaro di luna", or moonlight snowshoe walk. This event, the pride of Vezza d’Oglio, involves more than 4000 participants in a non-competitive night-time walk under the full moon. Visitors seeking their thrills at a slower pace can also enjoy sled rides towed by huskies from the Tonale Sleddog School, where you will be taught the knack of slipping silently over the snow.  Still in Passo del Tonale, you can be towed by the wind in complete safety using snow kites. Lastly, there is no shortage of cross-country ski trails at Ponte di Legno in Val Sozzine. You can ski on beaten trails of varying length and even ski at night, surrounded by the beautiful natural scenery. Enthusiasts who want to combine their passion for engines with snow can ride a snowmobile round a special circuit or enjoy night-time excursions with dinner in a mountain shelter.

Travel back in time to discover the Torri di Fraele, ancient Alpine watchtowers at the heart of the Scale Pass.
