Rebellious Lake Como. On the footsteps of the smugglers
Date: 16 Sep 2017 dalle 10:00 alle 23:59
Cos'è
Lake Como is a land of wonderful landscapes and history, but also the place where the adventures of smugglers, brigands and soldiers have been consumed. In this frontier land between Italy and Switzerland, the mountains just around the city Como were excavated to accommodate trenches, fortresses and hiding places. The woods have been inhabited by soldiers and the trails were crossed from one side of the border to the other by men with huge shoulder bags, often escaping from the guards of both countries. The Tour will guide you for a few hours (up to 5 hours) in the Spina Verde park, a nice green area of Como, where you can enjoy the natural beauty of the park, beautiful views of the city and the lake and learn very particular aspects of the local history.
A few hours between natural beauties, foxholes, fortresses, ancient barracks of the border guards, trails suspended between two countries and stunning scenery. On this journey that combines the discovery of a wonderful nature, historical places and tales of events halfway between folk tale and legend, you can capture the hidden rebel soul of Como and his mountains.
A pic-nic basket with local products is included in the price!
