Enjoy a unique experience along the famous Sentiero del Viandante, one of the most picturesque hiking routes on Lake Como. The trekking goes from Bellano to Varenna, skirting the lake on a historic mule track through chestnut woods, olive groves, and ancient stairways, offering unforgettable views and direct contact with nature, history, and local culture.
During the walk, you will admire glimpses of rare beauty and visit:
the Orrido di Bellano, a deep gorge carved out by the waters of the Pioverna stream over 15 million years ago; Vezio Castle (12th century), overlooking Varenna and a strategic vantage point; Varenna, an ancient hamlet with its famous Renaissance black marble quarries. At the end of the experience, you can relax with an aperitif overlooking the lake in Varenna. The tour concludes with the return trip by ferry, where you can once again admire the beautiful scenery of the lake directly from the water.
