Officially included in the list of the ‘Borghi più belli d'Italia’ (most beautiful villages in Italy), Bellano is a must-see destination for those seeking spectacular landscapes, authentic experiences and a variety of outdoor recreational activities, both inland and on the water. Located a few kilometres from Varenna, this village of about 3,200 inhabitants offers various attractions and services to tourists: a charming lakefront, a beach with facilities, a public swimming pool, traditional restaurants, cafés, shops and a lively cultural life, linked to various artistic personalities. One of its strong points is the marina: a well-equipped tourist port offering mooring for private boats, nautical services and a pleasant lakeside promenade. It is the ideal starting point for boat trips, water sports and connections with regular boats to Varenna, Menaggio, Bellagio and other pearls of the lake. The most evocative attraction in the area is the famous ‘Orrido di Bellano’, a spectacular natural gorge carved out over the centuries by the Pioverna stream. Walking along the footbridges suspended over the rushing waters, you can enjoy a breathtaking experience among waterfalls, caves and sheer rock faces. Perfectly connected by boat and train, Bellano is also an excellent base for exploring the area: • 4 km from Varenna (10 minutes by car or 5 minutes by train/ferry) • 26 km from Lecco (about 35 minutes by car) • 56 km from Como (about 1 hour by car) • 80 km from Milan (about 1 hour and 30 minutes by car or 1 hour and 40 minutes by train with a change in Lecco) Thanks to the railway station in the village and the Lake Como ferry stop, getting to and from Bellano is convenient and scenic. Ideal for a relaxing holiday or as a base for exploring, Bellano is a gem waiting to be discovered, whatever the season.
