Piazza Croggi is located right on the lake and is very close to the historic center of Como. As soon as you step out of the building's gate, you can take a stroll along the lake. There are also numerous bars and restaurants in the vicinity. There's a supermarket near the building - just a two-minute walk away.
GET AROUND
A ten-minute walk is enough to reach Como San Giovanni railway station. From this station, there are regular trains to Milan and Switzerland (Lugano, Bellinzona, Locarno).

Bus services are available in Como city and nearby towns; tickets can be purchased on the bus (cash only) or at other authorized points (the bus station in Piazza Matteotti in Como, bars, and tobacconists). Taxi services are also available.
From the pier, ferries reach Cernobbio, Torno, Bellagio, Varenna, Colico, and other lakefront locations.

Information and tips
We recommend dedicating a day to visiting the wonderful towns around the lake. Como city is the urban center of the area, but the towns are gems with splendid lakefront villas.
To move around and walk on Lake Como, especially in small centers, it is necessary to wear comfortable shoes.
There are many public drinking fountains in the area, and the water is safe to drink unless otherwise indicated. Tap water is also potable. Feel free to bring your refillable bottle!
If you are looking for a relatively easy hike in the area and still want to enjoy the mountain views, the Lake Como Greenway is an easy-to-follow trail that links the lake towns from Colonno to Griante and does not require too many climbs. A bus will take you to the starting point in Colonno.
The cable car takes you up to Pigra. From the village, several hiking trails depart, ranging from easy to challenging.
Look for traditional restaurants to taste local foods, such as dishes made with Lake Como fish.
In Italy, many shops (especially small ones) and services close in the middle of the day, so be careful to plan your purchases accordingly.
Lake Como is one of the deepest lakes in Europe and the deepest in Italy. Swimming and diving are prohibited in many areas and can be dangerous. For those wishing to immerse themselves in the water, however, there are some options. Look for the Argegno Lido. There are also beaches in other towns. The Bellagio Lido and the pebbly San Giovanni beach await those who want to travel and explore the beautiful town of Bellagio, which is located at the center of the two Larian branches. Locals and visitors also love going to Nesso, where the bravest swimmers can dive into the lake from the ancient Roman bridge near the waterfall.
Lake Como is located in a mountainous region. The surrounding Prealps do not seem very high, but the climate is nevertheless influenced by the nearby mountains, and temperatures can change rapidly. Pay particular attention to the weather conditions during excursions and bring warm and waterproof clothes with you!
