Water rediscovered To celebrate the beginning of the new millennium, the Municipalities of Sessa and Monteggio have decided to create a new itinerary together, whose main intention is to highlight the vestiges of history and of the natural environment but which also wishes to underscore the important relationship between water and man both in the past and in the present.
The path winds its way along the Pevereggia torrent. Nature and history offer traces of both past and present, all to be discovered in this corner of Malcantone. Water is seen from a double perspective as something "rethought out again" and as something "thought about in a new way", because the knowledge and the awareness of the past and of its relationship to the present allows us to face a future that has already begun in a constructive way.
