WHY THIS HIKE

The cross of Mount Moregallo over Lake Como

A slab of white rock, then the cross.

Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

Above Valmadrera, Monte Moregallo is one of the most captivating summits of the Triangolo Lariano. The path begins in the woods, quiet and enclosed, then gains height and opens out. The hardest part is the last, where you cross the distinctive slab of white rock: a few more steps and you are at the top, crowned by its cross. From up there the eye sweeps all around: the Corni di Canzo, the Cornizzolo, the Resegone, the Grignetta and Lake Como shining below.

5 reasons to come - the Moregallo cross and the full-circle panorama - the slab of white rock on the final stretch - Lake Como shining below the summit - the Grignetta and the Resegone in front of you - the silent woods on the way up

Who it suits Hard in physical terms, but with no exposed sections: right for anyone who already has a few medium walks behind them.

A challenge without exposure: come and try it with the Guidders.

Hi Guidders! I'm Paolo, a mid-mountain leader with the Collegio delle Guide Alpine of Lombardy. Before being a professional, I've always been a great enthusiast for the mountains, their landscapes and their history — and that's the right order, because the second thing grows out of the first. My working area runs across the provinces of Lecco, Como, Sondrio and Varese, with a specialisation around Lecco and the upper part of the lake: trails I know in every season and at every hour. I'd like to share that passion by taking you out on hikes of varying difficulty, rich in information about the places we visit together. 🥾 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
