recommended route
From Segna (near Gravedona) to Grotto Dangri (with dog)
Responsible for this content
Klaus WinstelA long but easy hike from Segna via Peglio and Liva to Grotta Dangri. Partly beautiful narrow hiking trails but also wide gravel and asphalt paths. Great views and landscapes. A refreshment stop in Grotto Dangri.

Distance 15.3 km
The tour offers (especially at the beginning) very nice views and a great hiking trail. But there are also some asphalt and gravel paths included which are not so nice. The landscape and mountains around Grotto Dangri are absolutely worth seeing - you can also stop for a bite to eat in a small restaurant.
Author’s recommendation
At the church in Peglio (just outside the village), you can take a break and enjoy the view. In Grotto Dangri, have a coffee or a snack.

Turn-by-turn directions
The best way to get to Segna is by car - the road to Segna is quite narrow and very bendy. From the parking space in Segna, go back a few meters and take the path on the right, between the houses uphill to a small and beautiful hiking trail. It leads to Peglio and its ancient church, where you have an amazing view – the ideal time for a short break. From Peglio, follow the road to Livo and continue towards Dangri. From Livo to Grotto Dangri, there is a wide asphalt and gravel road, which is also popular among cyclists. Shortly after Grotto Dangri, the path leads over a bridge uphill into the forest. This small path isn’t very easy to find. Follow the route that continues uphill until it ends at a house and turns into a gravel road. Follow this road downhill (later it turns into an asphalted road) to Livo. From there, the route leads you back on smaller trails to Segna.
