LAKE COMO Hike: Varenna/Bellano + Aperitif in Bellagio
Overview
For the adventurers out there, be prepared to enter the Italian backcountry, make new friends and really do some exploring. You'll really feel far-removed from the city on this hike, and your reward is more than just a great view, but a solid sense of accomplishment!
The tour starts in Varenna, considered one of the most romantic and characteristic village of the lake. We will hike along the famous “Wayfarer’s path” (Sentiero del Viandante) up to Bellano. We will cross small villages, passing through enchanted forests and by fields of olive trees, always surrounded by majestic mountains. We will visit the enchanting medieval Vezio Castle and continue our tour to Bellagio that we will reach by public boat.
