Overview

Easy hike in mountain with great views. With this trail we will discover an interesting and panoramic place on the mountains over Lake Como in the Lecco side. The guide will collect you in Milan and in about 60 minutes driving we will reach Piani dei Resinelli an old fashioned location in Valsassina. We will hike along a little natural park reaching the top of Mount Coltiglione where the view on the Dolomitic Grignetta is very interesting.

We will walk along the wide ridge reaching the side of the mountain overlooking the town of Lecco and its lake. Then with a little descent we will go over the “Belvedere dei Resinelli” a footbridge suspended in the mountain. Taking this hike with a guide will be a great experience where I will tell you about nature and local culture. I will tell you about plants, flowers, geology, geomorphology, alpine legends and typical local products.

Activity itinerary

Milan
  • 1h
Meeting in Molino Dorino Subway station where the guide with his car will take you to Piani dei Resinelli (about 60 minutes). During the trip we will pass by the lake near the town of Lecco where Alessandro Manzoni took inspiration to write his famous historical novel published for the first time in 1827 "I promessi sposi", The Betrothed.
Grignetta (Pass by)
At the beginning of our hike we will have the peak of Grignetta, Grigna Meridionale, in front of us, admiring its Dolomite spiers. The guide will tell you about the geology and geomorphology: Now we see the mountains but millions of years ago there was the sea here.
Parco Valentino
  • 3h
Parco del Valentino is an ancient mountain pasture and partly an ancient private hunting reserve of a noble family from Lecco. Today it is a small area managed by the local mountain community. Our hike takes place within the park area where at first with a short and steeper (not too much!) path we walk on top of Monte Paradiso and Monte Coltiglione from which it is possible to admire Monte Resegone in front of us, while on the opposite side, if visibility is good, we will be able to see Monte Rosa 4,634 m (15200 ft). From the two easy peaks connected by a wide ridge we will descend towards the Belvedere with its walkway overlooking the lake and the mountain. After a break admiring the Lake and the beautiful panorama we will hike in the beech forest going back Piani dei Resinelli with a little different path.
Monte Coltignone
  • 30m
From the top of Monte Coltiglione you can overlook the city of Lecco. The guide will tell you about its ancient origin and transformation from being one of the beating hearts of Italian culture to important industrial site.
Piani Resinelli
  • 50m
From Piani Resinelli to Milan, car trip with the guide
