The Lombardy / Lake Como Area
Lake of Como is at the south side of the Alps , 40 km north of Milan ,we have a very pleasant climate, nice springtime, not too hot summer with a refreshing breeze, and colourfull autumns. The winters are bright, hardly no rain, once or twice a good snow fall which paints the mountaintops white and invites to go up into the higher valleys with sleigh and skis!
The lake is visited by young people as it has excellent watersport facilities for swimming, sailing, surfing, the surrounding hills and mountains invite walking and you discover small hamlets, chapels and churches on forgotten spots, the high mountains all around have lots of tracks for hiking. the high Alps are near enough for a day trip or excursion.
The tourist who wants to relax, goes into the village square, buys a cappuccino , observe the locals chatting, takes the boat to see the beautiful shores and villages from the water side, visit the gardens of the famous 18th century villa's.
History is all around: Como's cathedral, romans churches either along the lake or up the hills. Lake Como was known to the romans, important in the middle ages as a through-way to northern countries either for fighting the neigbouring countries or trade with them.
