The Lombardy / Lake Como Area
Lierna is located in Lake Como area (Lombardy) . Our summers are wonderful with a pleasant breeze. July is the hottest month ( 26 / 30 C) , Springtime starts in March. May, June and September are the lovliest months. Winters are bright with lots of sun shine and nearly no rain but chilly, it may snow, but snow vanishes shortly near the lake and stays on the mountain tops. Lake Como has been an important through way for people coming and going north, pre-romanic churches, medieval castles and ... look out towers are still to been seen.
Beeing very close to shopping centres of the region give fashion victims some different possibilities: to buy silk in Como , dresses in Milan and more... Lake Como is full of villas and gardens and if you like is possible to walk up to the mountain in summer or skiing during wintertime. Water sports are all year long available.
Lierna area
Lierna is the village next to Varenna. It is a very pleasent medival little town on the east cost of the lake. It is rich of beautiful old villas and has two of the best beaches on the whole lake. It is 3 km from Moto Guzzi factory and museum, 10 km from Lecco, and 4 Km. from Varenna.
LOTS OF PLACES TO VISIT: * Lecco at 10 km is the main city where the plot of the most famous modern novel written by Alessandro Manzoni " Promessi Sposi" was set. * The waterfall "Orrido" of Bellano is a thundering water mass in a very narrow canion * "Fiume Latte" near Varenna, the shortest stream in Italy which appears in springtime out of a grotto. * Varenna is a well preserved coastal village with lovely shops, lake side restaurants and nice boulevard. The ferry boat takes you to Bellagio and Menaggio ( and the rest of the lake if you stay out for the whole day! ) * Chiavenna ( the old "chiave" key for the passage between Italy and central Europe) it has a wealth of historical buildings, the streets in the centre with their old portals and houses looking onto the river Nera are very distinctive. *Abbazia di Piona: located in a beautiful position near Colico, on a promontory separing the lake of Como from the lake of Piona, it was founded by the clunic monks in the 11thc entury, more over lake Piona is a resting place for migrating birds. *Sailing and surfing schools in Dervio, Bellano and Colico, some nice small sandy beaches makes lake como also very attractive to the young. No wonder that the rich and the beautiful ( filmstars and footballplayers) come to live by lake Como too!
