This very typical route is the classic climb from Como to Brunate (700 m), an extremely suggestive panoramic point. Brunate is beautiful for its Art Nouveau villas built over time by the noble families of Milan and Como. The first half takes place on rocky and steep stairs. The climb is 500m in the first kilometer, definitely not for everyone. But if you're fit, the view at the top of Lake Como is worth it. Another reward for reaching the top is the observation point, Faro Voltiano, near the...

Beautiful path, which starts from the arrival point of the Como-Brunate cable car and arrives in the famous town of Bellagio. The route takes the ridge trail (mostly marked as # 1) but many peaks can easily be avoided with the surrounding trails. The trail has a breathtaking view of Lake Como and the Alps. Tackling this path in one day is a challenge for anyone. The goal should be to arrive in Colma di Sormano by 1:00 pm at the latest to allow another 4/5 hours up to Bellagio. From Bellagio...

There is a shorter route if you want which only takes you up to the Lighthouse. There are many refreshment points along the road and the route is often paved.

This is a route with a very varied landscape and breathtaking views of Lake Como. This is a through hike from Brunate in the province of Como to San Giovanni in the province of Bellagio. The route can easily be divided into two segments, with an overnight stay in Pian del Tivano. In San Giovanni there is a boat that leaves every hour to return to Como. This hike can be strenuous at times but it is not difficult. The trail is very good for hiking, but for mountain biking it is only...

Once out of the funicular, you can follow cobbled streets and paths up the hill through the village to the Volta Lighthouse. The excursion to the beautiful villas and churches is worthwhile, as well as the view from where the lighthouse stands on Lake Como. The Brunate lighthouse was in fact built in 1927, on the occasion of the centenary of the death of Alessandro Volta, born and died in Como. In that year, the city wanted to celebrate the anniversary in style, with a major national...
