The Monte Grona is a 1736  m slm high mountain in the southern Alps ( Tambogruppe or Lugano Prealps ) between Lake Lugano and Lake Como in Lombardy in Italy .

Routes to the summit

The valley location is Breglia north of Menaggio . A mountain path begins at the Monti di Breglia (996 m). It first leads to a refuge (Rifugio Menaggio, 1,380 m). From there, in addition to the normal ascent, two other mountain trails lead to the summit: a direct steep ascent (“Direttissima”) and a viewing path (“Sentiero Panoramico”). The fourth way to the summit is a via ferrata ("Ferrata del Centenario CAO").
