Pognana
The next two destinations are on the same eastern shore. First stop is Faggetto which is situated in the midst of forests and beech-wood trees on the slopes of Mount Palanzone. The hamlets of Molina (at 467 meters), Lema (at 533 meters) and Palanzo (at 596 meters) are connected to the lake by way of stepped paths. Then Pognana, with the Romanesque church San Rocco, modest stone buildings and prestigious 7th and 8th century structures. On the opposite shore is Torriggia Laglio (there is no place to anchor) which is comprised of two centers. Above Lagio is the famous "Buco dell'Orso" (Bear hole) where the fossils of the Ursus spelaeus were found. Both the Municipality and the Como Civic Museum house these fossils. Torriggia is situated on the narrowest point of the lake at 650 meters.
