Things to Do in Laglio
and Around Lake Como
Laglio is a quiet village of stone lanes and pastel houses — the perfect calm base for exploring the western shore of Lake Como. Here's what we recommend to our guests.
Villa del Balbianello
One of the most beautiful villas on the lake, in nearby Lenno, with terraced gardens and film-famous views. Reachable by car or a scenic boat ride.

Villa Carlotta
A botanical museum and gardens in Tremezzo, spectacular in spring when the azaleas and rhododendrons bloom.

The Greenway del Lago di Como
An easy, well-marked 10–11 km walking trail along the western shore, winding through historic villages, frescoed churches and lakeside gardens — flat and suitable for everyone.

Boat tours from the lake
Classic wooden-boat and small-group tours, some with Prosecco on board, are the best way to see the villas and villages from the water. We can point you to trusted local skippers.

Laglio is also home to George Clooney's Villa Oleandra — you can admire the elegant lakeshore villas on a stroll or a boat trip, though the villa itself is private.
