Lake Como is around 50 km long and to the west of Menaggio. This is the point where the lake splits in two into the famous Y formation. There are many fine little Italian towns situated around the lake, with most being off the beaten track. For a real adventure try finding some of these you better just make sure you remember to take your Italian phrase book as many of the smaller villagers do not speak fluent English.
Try visiting one of the national parks which has over 500 species of plants, trees and shrubs from all over the world in its grounds. The town of Como itself is surrounded by high walls that once protected the town, once inside you will find a haven of shops that would be perfect for any tourist or local which is sure to be alive and bustling.
Now you’ve got where Lake Como is sorted and are fixed up with what you’re going to do when you’re there now you need to think about where you are going to stay. The standard of hotels in Como is excellent, most are built and furnished in traditional Italian style and all magnificent. Most hotels offer all inclusive deals which can be excellent value for money.
Many hotels are across the road from the lake side. Many have stunning views from the front rooms, pool and terraces across the lake to Bellagio, with most also having elegant restaurants, bars and lounges.
The next step is to decided what time of the year to go. without a doubt the best time to go to Lake Como is any time between Late March and October making it just about the start of the season in my opinion.
Like a typical holiday destination most hotels and restaurants as well as most leisure facilities close from November until March however if you want to do some great exploring then perhaps it is better to go this time for climbing, walking, hiking and running.
