Lake Como

Cradled by the Alps in Lombardy, Lake Como covers 146 km2 and plunges to 160 m at its deepest point, attracting 2.5 million visitors annually to its Belle Epoque villas and lush gardens. The village of Bellagio sits at the lake's iconic three-pronged fork, while George Clooney's Villa Oleandra has brought Hollywood glamour to its shores. For over two centuries Como has been Europe's most elegant lakeside escape.
