ORDINANCE OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF MACRA CLOSING THE TRAIL TO TRANSIT IN THE SECTION BETWEEN MACRA AND LOCALITÀ CARICATORI FOR SAFETY REASONS, DUE TO A DANGEROUS BRIDGE.

An easy loop hike that offers the opportunity to reach several hamlets of Macra. It owes its name to the cyclamens, flowers that grow along the entire route during the summer.

The first section runs along the Bedale di Langra stream, which can be crossed using wooden walkways. This is a walk through woods that alternate with wide views: Costa Chiggia, Monte Festa, Monte Buch, and Monte Chersogno.

Along the route, you will pass through the hamlet of Langra, with the Church of San Giuseppe and Sant’Antonio da Padova, and the hamlet of Caricatori, where you can see some terraces where vines were once cultivated.

Continue toward Camiglieres, where some houses feature frescoes by Giors Boneto, a painter from Paesana from the first half of the 18th century, and you can also admire a communal oven.

Then descend toward Macra, passing near the Church of San Pietro, which contains various fresco cycles inside, including the famous “Danse Macabre,” dating back to the 15th century.
