Lake Como hiking
Lake Como hiking and boat tours
The landscape of Lake Como is unique. Only here can you find the magical atmosphere of placid blue waters, surrounded by majestic, verdant mountains, from which you can admire truly suggestive views. If you love nature and outdoor activities, but also enjoy luxury and comfort? Our Lake Como hiking tours are perfect for you.
You can walk along some of the most beautiful paths around our lake, accompanied by a real mountain guide (International Mountain Leader). You will then reach the nearest pier and board our boat Venezia 28, to discover the other wonders of Lake Como, including historic villas and picturesque villages, in total relaxation directly from the waters of the lake.
Our proposals for hiking and boat trip on Lake Como
Working together with mountain guides, we have designed four spectacular itineraries that combine hiking at various levels of difficulty with an exclusive tour on our luxury boat.
All experiences are customisable to meet your every wish.
Via Verde: a pleasant stroll along Lake Como
Starting from Moltrasio, our guide will accompany you along the pleasant scenic route of the Via Verde, also known as Linera, for a quiet and undemanding walk.
Once you reach Carate Urio, you will find our boat waiting to ferry you to the opposite shore of the lake, where you can see the stunning Villa Pliniana. From here the navigation continues to the picturesque Nesso Bridge and then on to Villa del Balbianello, Villa Carlotta, Grand Hotel di Tremezzo and Bellagio.
At this point, you can choose whether to take a taxi boat Como back to the pier closest to your accommodation, or continue the tour to perhaps visit Bellagio or Varenna, or relax with lunch in one of the many restaurants on the lake.
Greenway: among the most beautiful panoramic walks in Lombardy
The Greenway is a pleasant 10 km walk divided into 7 stages on the western shore of Lake Como. It passes through the villages of Colonno, Sala Comacina, Ossuccio, Lenno, Mezzegra, Tremezzo and Griante.
Our guide has selected two truly splendid stages starting in Lenno, famous for Villa Del Balbianello, and finishing in Tremezzo, with the elegant Villa Carlotta and the Grand Hotel. If you want a shorter route, you have the option of getting off at Mezzegra and embarking early.
Once in Tremezzo, you will board our taxi boat Como to Bellagio and Varenna, with a relaxing stop in the bay of Isola Comacina. The navigation naturally includes a tour of the most beautiful villas you will encounter on your way down to Como.
Sentiero del Viandante: a walk along the Lecco shoreline
The Sentiero del Viandante (Wayfarer’s Path) is an itinerary that winds along the eastern shore of Lake Como, starting in Lecco and ending in Morbegno in Valtellina. Panoramic paths and mule tracks offer exceptional views of the lake.
Our guide has devised a route from north to south, through the two most suggestive stages of the entire trail. Descending from Bellano, you can admire the castle of Vezio and Fiumelatte with its fresh spring and bubbling waters.
Arriving in Varenna, you can board our luxurious and comfortable boat to enjoy the wonderful waters of the lake, see Bellagio and Tremezzo on the other side, while returning to your accommodation sipping a delicious glass of Brut Millesimato.
Monte Piatto tour: a hike in the Como mountains
The tour to Monte Piatto is one of our most challenging routes, for those who love hiking and the mountains. Starting from Torno, our guide will accompany you towards the small settlement of Montepiatto along a steep path, which then turns into a long, stepped climb to the destination.
Awaiting you and rewarding your effort will be the wonderful views of the first basin of the lake. The route continues to the Sanctuary, the Church of Mary, and the ancient Convent. You can also admire the very special Pietra Pendula, an erratic boulder resting on a base that looks like an enormous mushroom.
Having completed the circular route and returned to Torno, you can freshen up and have lunch in the beautiful village square. The day ends with an exclusive and comfortable boat tour of Lake Como, which will take you on a discovery of hidden views and historic villas as far as Tremezzo, Bellagio and Varenna.
