Lidos can be found in Lenno, Cadenabbia, Bellagio, Como, Dongo and Menaggio. One of the most beautiful Lidos in this region is Lido di Lenno, located in the middle of Lake Como, on the West Coast. A cruise around the heart of the Lake, between the towns of Bellagio, Varenna, Menaggio and Cadenabbia, is a must during your holiday on Lake Como! Beautiful historic villas and gardens full of flowers and exotic plants can be seen on the banks (especially between Cernobbio, Gravedona and Bellagio)! You can walk on the surrounding hills, for example in Park Val Sanagra, near Menaggio. A beautiful park, situated in a valley, where several walking routes are marked out along old mills, rivers and rural villages. Villa Balbianello (in San Siro), the villa where the James Bond movie Casino Royale was shot, is also nice to visit. Or Villa Carlotta, in Tremezzo, a beautiful villa from the end of the 17th century. You can visit fascinating gardens of about 8 hectares and a museum here. A day trip to Milan or the Swiss city of St. Moritz is also possible. Or take the cable car from Como over the hills to the village of Brunate for stunning views of Lake Como and the Alps. In short: plenty of possibilities from your holiday home on Lake Como!
