The small hamlet of Lesa known as Calogna (about 70 inhabitants) is set on the eastern slopes of Motta Rossa, a high hill above the level tract of the River Erno.
It is located above Belgirate, at an altitude of 522 metres. The area above Calogna is an incomparable repository of nature, bubbling with waters, and abounding with chestnut, holly, pine, fir and above all silver birch trees. This, and the aerial views, makes it one of the most beautiful corners of the Vergante in landscape terms, and a destination worth pointing out to respectful tourists.
The construction of large golf courses in the woods around the summit brought about great changes in the 1980s.

Lesa is located in a small hamlet and has various beaches and bars along the shoreline. It is considered a quiet place located in a very green area, however it is not too far removed from nighttime clubs and bars.
