Il Sentiero del Viandante è un trekking che ripercorre le antiche vie che da Milano conducevano oltre le Alpi . Corre parallelo a "quel ramo del Lago di Como" attraverso una moltitudine di fantastici ambienti rurali e naturali, facendoci assaporare momenti di vita passata e antiche tradizioni storiche e culturali.
From Abbadia to Colico, several days immersed in the magnificent scenery of Lake Como, enjoying, as well as the great views, even the delicacies of local cuisine. A trekking never excessively challenging to enjoy from the first to the last step. Traveling through history reading the human landscape is one of the many levels where you can walk the Wanderer, discovering the many events of this part of the lake. Thus, for example, we will learn that until the end of the nineteenth century this entire slope was a huge vineyard where a red and light wine was produced. All stories that you learn by taking a walk along that branch of Lake Como at noon.
