Rifugio Menaggio, Lake Como, Italy, 9/21/2011, continued

After a short rest at the Rifugio, we moved on to Pizza Coppa, another 20-minute walk up. From there, we had views of the refuge as well as of the 3 area lakes: Como, Lugano and Piano. The views from up there were stunning and the path, narrow and with some exposure, a little scary.
View of mountain pass between lake Como and Lake Lugano.

View over the mountain pass of Lake Lugano and Lake Piano. The city of Lugano is at the very top of the lake and not visible. This hike was the highlight of our four European trip hikes. Jim said about this hike that is was probably the most beautiful hike he had ever done in his life. Now that's an endorsement.
