Swiss Lugano ( Casino) , Como-city for its weekly market, etc not to miss the charming valleys all around with small hamlets to discover.
One week is too short.
Carate Urio area
Carate Urio is a typical como lake village built against the steep slopes surrounding the lake. Lake Como was once a gletcher and it the deepest lake of Europe. The slopes falling steeply into the lake explain also why you do not have large and long sandy beaches, but short green strips of land where people sunbath and dive into the clean water.
Carate Urio is a cluster of houses , with a still " italian" atmosphere, the old medieval centre is worth to be explored , you will be amazed, how many narrow walking paths lead to the lake or up the mountain. Take the boat and look at the village from the water and try to find " Casa Giovannina " in between all the other pink-yellow coloured houses!
Panoramic footpaths connect Carate Urio with Moltrasio , Cernobbio and Laglio , passing through meadows and woods, Carate has it own "mineral water fountain "where the locals go with their empty bottles and a chat with the neighbours and for those who like to reach the "top" of the mountain, your excursion starts at your doorstep
Carate has the " essential" to survive but for extensive shopping and nightlife you depend on Cernobbio and Como.
