Activities on your Como Holiday

There are plenty of attractions and activities to keep visitors of all ages on their toes on a Italy holiday to Como.

• Number one of course, is a visit to the nearby Lake Como. Italy’s most popular lake is host to a variety of fun activities – both on and off the water. For water sports enthusiasts, why not try motor-boating, windsurfing, or scuba diving. For those after a quieter pace, try your luck with a fishing rod or take a refreshing dip. Swimming in the lake is better done from the towns of Menaggio and Tremezzo, where there are some pebbly beaches and the water is cleaner.
• Escape the water and enjoy the beautiful scenery from above with some paragliding or a helicopter ride.
• Around the lake, nature-lovers can hike or horseback ride along the many trails and paths.
• Or, for something different, try some cooking lessons! Lake Como is renowned for its cooking school, which welcomes beginners and the more experienced, to learn how to create some of Italy’s tastiest dishes.
• Within the city of Como itself, you can spend an afternoons admiring the ancient architecture. Pay a visit to the Como Cathedral, which dates back to the 1300s, or the San Fedele Church, which dates back to Roman times.
