Beyond the vegetation, you can also enjoy stunning views of the Ghiridone and the Pizzo Leone. While descending towards the Alpe Avaiscia, you’ll soon spot a large cliff next to a farmhouse below. This is one of the main centres of energy on the slopes of the Ghiridone. The rock features beautiful carvings and is considered by archaeology experts to be one of the most important and panoramic around the lake. The vibrations are very strong throughout the stone and a powerfully spiritual bright white light pervades the place.
There is an interesting energy well at the Alpe Voièe, and slightly further on, in Vantarone, the beautiful boulder near the bench offers an invitation to meditate and contemplate. This is a particularly powerful centre of energy with an atmosphere that is truly magical and spiritual.
In Cortaccio, another unexpected large boulder deserves your full attention, firstly for its rock carvings that offer continuity with those you’ve already seen. Other smaller stones on the ground can also be seen around the central stone. Although some of these are missing, in ancient times this was a stone circle, probably used as a healing circle by the Lepontii and Celts. The whole meadow is a place of power as well as the last stop on this tour. Make the most of it!
