Walks on the paths of Lake Como

The territory of Lake Como is the perfect place for hiking and walking excursions; the routes connecting the villages and mountain hamlets are masterfully constructed paths built during the past centuries. Walking along these paths we pass through areas that are unique in the world, breathing in all of nature while immersed in the wonderful landscape that surrounds us. The magnificent excursions of Lake Como, from the simple walk through art and culture, to the long stages walking along the hillside on historical paths, delighting in the wonderful views suspended between the lake and the mountains.

The Lario area satisfies all lovers of trekking and hiking, especially thanks to its variety of routes and because of the refreshment points that emerge along the paths: lodges, mountain huts, restaurants and farmhouses where you can take a break and taste the typical cuisine. A special thanks goes to the Mountain Communities, the Municipalities, the Pro Loco organizations and all the volunteers who take care of and maintain the paths of this marvelous land.
