Comment (Automatic translation in english)

The route starts from Cozzo, at the bottom of Val Colla, where there is a parking lot for 6 or 7 cars.
From here the trail starts with a moderate slope, up to 1500 meters. At this point we must be careful not to be deceived by the huge cross placed on a summit at an altitude of 2075, which attracts hikers out of the right path. In fact, on Gazzirola there is only a sign and a stone. After reaching this cross and then the Gazzirola, I left immediately because of the strong wind. For the return I followed the ridge entirely in Switzerland and then rejoin the path traveled during the first leg.
