out of 5

Lecco is a picturesque town on the eastern shore of Lake Como in Italy. Lake Como is a glacial lake located in the Alps. It has been praised by many famous people, including poets and writers such as Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

With its cobbled streets, charming cafes, and views of the lake and mountains, it is the perfect place to slow down and savor the beauty of Italy. Spend your days exploring the stunning landscapes of the area on foot, bike or boat. Head to the nearby mountains for a day of hiking or skiing, or take a boat trip to visit Bellagio, Varenna, Como, or other nearby lake towns. There are also plenty of cultural attractions to visit, such as the Lecco Museum of Natural History, the Biblioteca Civica and the Church of Santa Marta. As most places in Italy, the area is known for its gastronomy, including dishes such as polenta, crespelle, cassoeula and risotto alla milanese. Whether you’re looking for outdoor activities or cultural attractions, Lecco is a great destination for travelers of all ages.
