The Weird Geonames Tour (the Bizzarrone edition)

I was chatting with friends about the weirdness of some village names in Lombardy and came up with a proposal for an *international* tour of some of them.

Malnate, Cantello, Ligurno, Stabio, Ligornetto, Genestrerio, Bizzarrone, Uggiate Trevano, Beregazzo con Figliaro, Castelnuovo Bozzente, Tradate, Torba, Gornate, Lozza, Gurone, Malnate.

An estimate made with OSRM would place it at some 50 km.

I'm not sure I'll ever do anything about it, but it looked like it was worth posting.

(Bizzarrone is the name of a border passing between Italy and Switzerland, and the settings of a series of sketches on the swiss TV, Frontaliers)
