Tips from locals
On the top of the mountain, overlooking the inland Lake Como, there is a lighthouse!! which you can walk up to. It was built in honour of Alessandro Volta, famous for inventing the battery.
1900 lighthouse, built for lake airplanes. Check the timetables to visit it till the top.
The Volta Lighthouse is a 29-meter high octagonal tower from which you can see views that range over the western part of the Alps, to the Monte Rosa, to the new skyscrapers in Milan.
Perhaps the most beautiful view of Como and the Alps. An unforgettable experience!
