40 minutes to 1 hour 5 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English and 3 more

Explore the diverse, unique and unexpected beauty of Italy’s Lake Como on a pleasant self guided audio tour along the Greenway trail. We’ll stroll along a 2,5km stretch from Ossuccio to Lenno, following parts of the old Roman Road. We’ll pass through villages and open areas dotted with the ruins of ancient chapels. Along the way, with the calls of the old fishermen floating on the Ventone winds, I’ll tell you the tale of an underwater church with bells that toll from deep in the lake.

The landmarks include:

• Comacina Island, a small piece of land rich in history and legends
• Olive trees overlooking the bays of Lake Como
• Villa Balbiano, an elegant, ancient mansion
• The Golfo di Venere that hides a small Atlantis
• Ancient churches such as the church of Saint Eufemia and Saint Stephen’s
