WHY THIS HIKE

Mount San Primo over the branches of Lake Como

Mount San Primo is the highest peak in the Larian Triangle and offers a privileged vantage point. The itinerary develops along grassy ridges and open trails, offering a constant view of our mountains. Once at the summit, the view falls directly above the promontory of Bellagio, allowing us to see both branches of the lake simultaneously, with the Lecco branch, the Grigne and the Resegone acting as a backdrop throughout the day. It is the perfect excursion for those who want to have an amazing view without having to face extreme slopes.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Arianna, an environmental hiking guide: nature, smiles and a real appetite for exploring. I love nature and everything in it, and taking groups out to discover special places is my passion. What I enjoy most is sharing curiosities and the little secrets of a place, and passing on that sense of wonder only a well-lived hike can give you. I'm a sunny person, I love human contact and I always put the wellbeing of the group first: a good day out for me is one where everyone feels good, not the fastest one. Every outing should leave a mark — breathtaking landscapes, genuine emotions and new connections between people. If you're looking for an enthusiastic, involving guide, we understand each other. 🥾 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
