Exploring the Lake Como Region and Beyond
Villa Glicine Moltrasio Como occupies an enviable position on the Tremezzina, one of the most celebrated stretches of Lake Como’s western shore. The picturesque town of Menaggio lies just a short drive north, offering waterfront cafés, gelaterias, and a lovely promenade along the water. Bellagio, often called the pearl of Lake Como, is reachable by a scenic ferry ride across the lake from Menaggio, approximately thirty minutes door to door. The magnificent gardens of Villa Carlotta in Tremezzo are only about ten minutes away by car, showcasing extraordinary botanical collections and neoclassical art.
The tiny Comacina Island, visible directly from the villa, can be visited by water taxi and is home to a legendary restaurant that has served its set menu since 1947. Lenno, with its ancient baptistery and the famous Villa del Balbianello seen in numerous films, sits just minutes along the shore. For those wishing to explore further afield, the vibrant city of Como is roughly forty minutes south by car, offering cathedral visits, silk shopping, and funicular rides to Brunate for panoramic views.
