San Carlo Path | Stage 1 Arona-Ameno

After reaching the church of Sant'Eufemia in Paruzzaro, the route arrives in Invorio, which, due to its central position between Cusio and Verbano, is considered the "gateway to Vergante." Leaving the town behind, the route continues along the provincial road leading to Alto Vergante and, through a dirt road that passes through thick vegetation, it reaches Monte Barro, where one can admire the ancient medieval village of the same name and the small church dedicated to Santa Maria Annunziata. From here, the route returns to the previous road and continues north, with slight ups and downs on the eastern slope of Motto Alto; then a mule track leads down to the Agogna stream and reaches Ameno.
