Really amazing, nice view at top. You can see so many places from the Top including Malpensa Airport.Mountains view from Switzerland. Walking trails.

Gorgeous view on the Varese lake and the adjacent countryside. There are two small parking lots to leave your car, then a short hike helps reaching the panoramic platform. It's probably the best scenic point to appreciate the lake.

Very nice place, you need to park your car and walk for 5 min to reach it.
