The walk begins in Curiglia, in Val Veddasca, where free parking is available in the village. From here, the route immediately leads into the quiet pedestrian streets, following the red-and-white trail markers that guide hikers along the path. After about half an hour of uphill walking on an asphalt road, you reach Sarona.

Before continuing, it’s worth taking a moment to pause: the view over Val Veddasca and the villages on the opposite slope, with a glimpse of Lake Maggiore, is truly striking.

Rising behind the town of Laveno Mombello, the Sasso del Ferro (1,062 m) is one of the most scenic destinations in the Varese Prealps. It can be easily reached by cable car from the center of Laveno, arriving at Poggio Sant’Elsa in just a few minutes, or on foot via a pleasant hike starting from Cittiglio.

The Hotel is situated in a wonderful location right on the shores of the Comabbio lake, a few kilometers away from the centre of Varese. A very paradise for sports fans and for anyone who wants to enjoy a moment of peace and stillness.
