Former railroad
In the past there was a railway line between Menaggio and Porlezza . The service was opened in 1884 and suspended in 1939 due to the outbreak of World War II . In 1946 a project to electrify the small railroad was presented; it was approved in 1949, but the renovations were never triggered. The railroad was no longer in service and was eventually suppressed and abandoned in 1966.
