The Lombardy / Lake Como Area

Lake Como is 50 km long and north of Milan and one of the most beautiful. It is considered the deepest lake in europe ( 400 m)and situated in a basin at the foot of the alps , surrounded by lovely valleys where you can hike or bike. As Lake Como is on the border with Switzerland, some of these valleys are a high-pass for hikers ( in the past for smugglers!) In winter the tops and higher valleys are snow covered . The shores of lake Como alternate between picturesque villages leaning out on the water, small gravel beaches, pleasure harbours and water sport areas for windsurfing, sailing and water skiing. Mbikers and trekkers have an ample choice. .

Rezzonico area

Rezzonico is a picturesque village with a secluded rocky -gravel cosy bay , which you donot see from the road . It has a pizzeria, small supermarket , pharmacy and bank, for extensive shopping you depend on Menaggio or Dongo. Menaggio ( 8km) along the lake, has narrow streets, good shops, restaurants. The long boulevard goes from the harbour to the "lido" with swimming pool, playground for children and minigolf. For a relaxed holiday start off with a Capuccino at the local "bar" , stand up at the counter as italians do or sit down outside and watch the by passers. Make a visit to the villa's Balbianello, Carlotta, Melzi, take a day trip on the boat and crisscorss from village to village: Bellagio, Varenna, Lenno. visit Como-city, with historical buildings, churches,good restaurants, 3 weekly market ( donot forget the vegetable-fish market). Take the car and go up the winding roads in the hills and mountains, stop at a church or monastry, taste the local cheeses and wines. Remember to order pizzocheri, misultin and try the " Inferno" wine and grappa. Go on a daytrip to Milan ( trendy shopping, tradefaires, old centre, Scala.) Why not to Bergamo (Bergamo alto) , Verona ( opera) or even Venice? Lugano just over the border in Switzerland ( 25 km) shows you how different the atmosphere can be between the two countries. visit the waterfalls of Bellano and Nesso , for golfers : the golf course of Menaggio is the oldest of Italy! for a taste of high alps , drive to St. Moritz ( 90 km). the famous mountain resort.
