The path took us thru the Via Regina or Antica Strada Regina built by the Romans. This road was an important connection to the apline passes to reach the countries north of the Alps. It was in use until the 18th century when a present lake road was built.
The Via Regina is in disrepair, as you can see, and is in the process of being rebuilt as a hikers path.
