Reachable in all seasons even with gravel bikes (preferably equipped with generous tires and for mixed terrain). 360° panoramic view of the province of Varese from the Alps across the border to the north, to the Apennines, including the city of Milan, towards the south.

Orino is the first route of the Paths of Peace, the redevelopment of the Northern Border. Better known as the Cadorna Line, the system of military fortifications protected the Swiss border during the First World War. The municipal route begins at the Orino Fort, at an altitude of 1,139 meters, and extends within the boundaries of Campo dei Fiori Park. In addition to the artillery emplacement, a cannon emplacement on Monte Tre Croci and the remains of overhanging walkways are visible.
