/Magic in her shores and mountains | Lilacs wave to snow caps along Lake Como |
Serene, tranquil and a heavenly dream for the nature lover with the magic of lake breezes that sail you away to every corner - blossoms and blooms everywhere in spring - alpine snow-capped peaks in winter - autumn colors that you watch deepen day by day - the lake that beckons you to play in summer.
We spent a lovely summer here in 2004 - much has changed, in addition to our little ski club no longer in existence. It is now a popular summer destination for global travelers in addition to Italians who have always come.
October, November and December have given us beautiful, crisp days and nights and it is much less crowded.
Check our General Tips for a map of the little towns and villages along the lake. |
|  | CHRISTMAS COMES TO COMO We watched the crew build this display by the Lake for a week now -- and, here it is - lovely wooden vendor booths brightened with Christmas decorations and lights surround the ice skating rink right there with arriving and departing boats in the background. Well done, Comune di Como! |
| | Autumn shows her colors at Lake Como This photo was taken in November 2007 as I walked along the wide stone pathway from Piazza Cavour at the Lake toward Villa Olmo - one of my favorite haunts.
Tilt your monitor to the darker shade to really get an idea of the autumn colors - the blue sky and lake. |
