Menaggio, in the heart of Lake Como

Lombardy, Lake Como, Menaggio
Lombardy, Lake Como, Menaggio

Menaggio is located in a beautiful landscape in the center of Lake Como and is an excellent starting point for discovering the lake and the mountains that surround it.

Menaggio is known for its beautiful and well-kept "Lungo Lago”, a wide walk with palm trees and flowers. Starting from the boat station at Lido di Menaggio, past a mini golf course, the promenade extends along the shore offering magnificent views of the lake and mountains, snowy until spring.

Varenna stands out on the opposite side and in the center of the lake you can see the enchanting Bellagio. Menaggio has a pretty old town with narrow streets, some shops, restaurants and bars as well as several hotels, two of which can boast a long tradition from the so-called "Belle & Eacute; a few”. Piazza Garibaldi, open to the lake, is bordered by the tables and chairs of the surrounding bars, which invite you to stop while admiring the view.

Menaggio is strategically very convenient: Varenna or Bellagio can be reached in a short time by ferry. Como can be reached quickly by hydrofoil. The tourist boats stop Menaggio from March to October and invite you to pleasant cruises. Buses connect Menaggio with all the resorts on the western shore of Lake Como.

Menaggio is ideal for experiencing Lake Como, practicing sports, spending fun evenings tasting local cuisine and as a starting point to cover the wonders of the area.
