Exploring the Tremezzina district
From Argegno to Menaggio. Bellagio and Varenna
Buchbeschreibung
«Tremezzina, pearl of Lake Como». This slogan dates back to the early twentieth century, when Tremezzo was already an internationally recognized resort and its coastline offered an unparalleled overview of villas and hotels.
A century has passed, and today one looks at the same territory with much more discerning eye, appreciating an amazing human mosaic made of different features: Middle Ages archeological sites along the ancient Via Regina and on the Comacina Island; beautiful examples of spontaneous architecture in coastal villages; superb natural environment between the lake and the mountains; traditional human activities like fishing, cultivation, animal husbandry.
Sailing on the lake, shopping in the open-air markets of its many villages, strolling along the lake shore while hearing the sound of bells in the distance.

Discover it all in a new pocket guide, easy to take on your way, of course, but also to read like a novel, during a boat trip.
