Today we caught a bus to a little village to the north called Croce. It has the highest elevation of all the villages in the commune of Menaggio and has a fantastic view over the town of Menaggio. From there we took a walk along a trail which passed a network of trenches which were part of a defence line called the Cadorna Line built in 1915 along the Swiss-Italian border, fearing an attack from Germany, however they were never used. Some of the trenches have been restored and there was also a cute little church restored and maintained by a local association, that is a monument to all fallen soldiers.
