Gravedona


Gravedona…
A Unique Medieval Experience

In Gravedona, one is quickly haunted by ghosts of the past with a town that has retained its medieval urban plan and a creepy church dating from the 12th century.

Gravedona may not be too far from Domaso, Lake Como’s windsurfing capital but the feel of the town is world’s apart. Even the residential houses tend to keep an ancient look about them, transporting tourists several hundred years back in time.

For others, however, Gravedona may seem like a more convenient base to get their watersports needs met than Domaso. After all, it has one of the most beautiful lakeside promenades found anywhere on the lake, great bicycle paths, sandy beaches, public tennis courts and a variety of sailing centers.

Dreamy Italy Vacations For You

Italy Vacations – Why Is Lake Como is the Best Choice?

While visiting the many picturesque villages, castles and towers in this Italian lake, you sometimes get the feeling that you are in Tuscany with lush gardens of flowering azaleas and other times like you are somewhere on the Mediterranean coast with sparkling waters and lakeside breezes.

Getting from Milan to Lake Como

There are many ways that you can get from Milan to Lake Como using public transportation. You have the option of taking trains (two different services: normal and “le nord”), you can take a public bus or a shuttle bus.

Regular train service from Milan to Lake Como

The city of Como’s main train station – the Como San Giovanni station – is approximately 50 km from Milan’s downtown. A train-ride only takes roughly 40 minutes by normal train services. The trains are very cheap here too. As cheap as they are, don’t expect huge luxuries. They are certainly not as comfortable as the expensive ‘business class’ trains which travel from Milan to Rome. Be sure to use the toilets before getting on one! Check out www.trenitalia.it for more information on schedules.

Italian lake holidays have always been renowned for their solitude and peace and Lake Como has been a well-known retreat for some of Italy’s wealthiest citizens since the 19th century.
