About Lake Como
Lake Como is located in the north of Italy, close to Switzerland, and is one of the country’s greatest natural beauties. Its crystal-clear blue waters contrast with the vivid green on the shore, inhabited by small villages, and the mountains next to the forests.
It’s impossible not to fall in love with the stunning beauty of the lake and the welcoming atmosphere of the nearby villages. There are six in all: Bellagio, Varena, Bellano, Menaggio, Tremezzo and Nesso. Each one has its own unique beauty, but they all follow a certain pattern, with old buildings and colorful houses surrounded by flowers, bushes and trees. An atmosphere worthy of a movie.
