The city of Como is a popular holiday resort in the Italian Alps on Lake Como (Lago di Como). We came to Como by train from Milan and after a short walk from the train station through the old town we got to the apartment in a historic house at square by the lake.

Como is a historic city, surrounded by mountains, at the deepest alpine lake. Everyone will find something for themselves: old town, museums, picturesque lake, mountains, hiking routes, alpine landscapes, the cathedral and churches... We are happy to come back for a long walk in the mountains around the lake.
