2025 Menaggio Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

#postandearn 📍Lake Como, Italy One day, four towns—Lake Como is a dream come true! Here’s how we explored Como, Bellagio, Menaggio, and Varenna in a single (magical) day. ☀️ Morning in Como We kicked off in Como with espresso and a visit to the Duomo, followed by a fun ride up the funicular to Brunate. The view? Picture-perfect lake panoramas! 🚤 Ferry to Bellagio The mid-morning ferry ride north was a highlight itself—villa views and calm blue waters. Bellagio greeted us with charming alleys, boutique shops, and a lakeside lunch of fresh pasta and white wine. 🍨 Laid-back Menaggio Next up: Menaggio. Slower-paced, with a beautiful promenade and cozy town square. We cooled off with gelato while soaking in the sunshine. 🌅 Sunset in Varenna Our final stop was romantic Varenna, with pastel buildings and a peaceful vibe. We hiked up to Castello di Vezio just in time for a sunset that lit up the lake—truly unforgettable. ⸻ Quick Tips: 🚢 Buy a ferry day pass to hop between towns easily 🎟️ Visit in the shoulder season (spring or early fall) for smaller crowds. 📷 Morning and sunset = best light for photos 🍷 Eat local—lake fish, fresh pasta, and a glass of wine are a must! #tripmoments #lakecomo

🌟I really like Lake Como, the most beautiful lake in Milan, Italy, and Varenna, the most beautiful town. This is my third time visiting Milan, and I make a special trip to check in each time to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. In the town of Varenna, I find my inner self. 🌟Here, you can be surrounded by flowers, and you can also take a boat trip around Lake Como to admire the scenery of other surrounding towns. Bellagio and Menaggio are both super beautiful. At the same time, you can feel the splendor and beauty of Lake Como. 🌟There are many hiking routes in the Varenna area. You can choose a route that suits you, stroll along the lakeside or mountain trails, and enjoy the natural scenery and cultural landscape along the way. 🌟It is also recommended to visit museums such as the Varenna International Vintage Boat Museum to learn about local history and culture. The town retains many ancient buildings and historical sites. Castello di Vezio is worth visiting. This castle is located on the top of a mountain, and it is definitely worth taking the time to climb to the top and overlook the beautiful scenery of Varenna and Lake Como.

#europetrip #Menaggio #italy #italy_views Menaggio, a charming and less crowded town on the shores of Lake Como, stole our hearts with its peaceful ambiance and stunning scenery. We loved strolling along the lakefront promenade, taking in the serene views of the glistening water framed by the surrounding mountains. Stopping for a refreshing gelato from a local shop added a delightful touch to our leisurely walk. One of the highlights was visiting the Church of Santo Stefano, a historic gem with beautiful frescoes and a tranquil atmosphere that invited quiet reflection. Menaggio offered the perfect blend of relaxation and authentic Italian charm, making it a memorable stop on our journey.

#italytrip Looking for a dreamy place with turquoise waters, beautiful scenery, stunning villas and picturesque villages? Lake Como is calling! Lake Como is the 3rd largest Italian lake located at the foot of the Alps and is shaped like an upside-down Y, with three slender branches, the so-called “Golden Triangle” (the towns of Bellagio, Varenna and Menaggio). They are arguably the best places to visit on a day trip to Lake Como as they’re pretty easy to reach from the city. 📷 Whether you visit Lake Como for a day or stay longer, board a boat, relax and enjoy the view of the lake. 🚂Getting There - Taking the train from Milan is probably the easiest and fastest (yet still pretty affordable) way to get to Lake Como. Since there are no trains from Milan to Bellagio, it’s best to take a train from Milano Centrale to Varenna-Esina Station. From Varenna-Esina Station, you can walk to Lake Como and the town of Varenna in a few minutes. Varenna itself is a stunning little town, so definitely take some time to wander around and enjoy the views. If you want to continue your trip to visit the rest of the “Golden Triangle” of Lake Como (Bellagio and/or Menaggio), you can take a ferry ride from Varenna.
