A charming historic town on the eastern shore of Lake Como, known for its narrow stone streets, colorful houses, and romantic lakeside promenade. Unlike the livelier Bellagio, Varenna maintains a quieter and more authentic atmosphere. It is one of the most beautiful places for walking, photography, and enjoying views of the lake and the surrounding mountains.
Varenna is a freely accessible village on the shores of Lake Como — walking through the streets, the harbor, and the waterfront is free of charge. Villa Monastero and Villa Cipressi within the village charge a separate entrance ticket.
