Splendido panorama dal laghetto del Pertus sulla valle dell'Adda. Si vedono ben 6 laghi dal Pertus: Olginate, Garlate, Annone, Pusiano ed anche Alserio in lontananza. Si vedono parecchi monti vicini al lago di Como. Il Pertus ha un laghetto piccolo rotondeggiante dove molte persone prendono il sole d'estate.
