Located at 881 metres (2,890 ft) above sea level, with a panoramic view on Lake Como, the town is accessible by paved road from Argegno, winds along the Valle d'Intelvi and by cable railway, which in five minutes exceeds a drop of 540 metres (1,770 ft), allowing access to the village directly from Argegno. As of 31 December 2004, it had a population of 294 and an area of 4.3 square kilometres (1.7 mi2).

As you make your way up the winding road to Pigra, you'll be greeted with panoramic views of Lake Como and the surrounding mountains. Once you arrive in the village, you'll find charming cobblestone streets lined with colorful houses and gardens overflowing with flowers. Take a stroll through the village and stop by the local church, which dates back to the 17th century.

One of the main draws of Pigra is the cable car that takes you to the top of Mount Pigra, offering even more spectacular views of the lake and surrounding areas. From the top, you can go on a hike or enjoy a meal at one of the restaurants with a view.
