Description

Along the eastern shore of Lake Como in Italy is a hiking path, today called the Wayfarer’s Path. The trails date to the Roman era and they were used for the transport of people and goods until about 1830 when a lakeside coastal road was constructed. Considering the rugged terrain with the mountain slopes often dropping straight to the lake edge, construction of the coastal road was easy. Between Varenna and Lierna at an altitude of about 700 m are a couple of abandoned buildings at a place called Cascina (Farmhouse) Roslina. It is used to describe the hiking route but other than that I could find no information on its history. It is fascinating to imagine the lives of the people living in such rugged places.
