Municipality Of Carona

Via Papa Giovanni XXIII, 1
Carona


Description

The municipal territory, situated in a high-profile naturalistic context, allows an innumerable number of excursions suitable for every need. Among the others, there are the ascent to Mount Aga and the Pizzo del Diavolo di Tenda, but also those to the Rifugio Laghi Gemelli, Rifugio Fratelli Calvi and Rifugio Fratelli Longo, the latter two destinations for many mountain-bike climbs.
During the winter period, the village, in partnership with the nearby municipalities, boasts numerous opportunities for lovers of alpine skiing and ski mountaineering, with connections to the resort of Foppolo. Half an hour's walk from the town centre, going up towards the Fratelli Calvi refuge, is the characteristic village of Pagliari. It is a small urban agglomeration in rustic style, with houses built inardesia and without foundations, so much so that it is called the "contrada di pietra". Travelled for a long time by wayfarers and smugglers who passed through to avoid the customs of the San Marco Pass, it has origins dating back to the 16th century.
