Colico

The town of Colico is the last we come across on the east coast of the Lecco branch of Lake Como. It is immersed in a grand landscape of mountains dominated to the east by the Legnone, to the north by the Chiavenna peaks amongst which Sasso Manduino, and to the west by the mountain tops of the Alto Lario.

It is an important tourist locality for both holidays and stop-overs: it is in fact situated between the converging point of the roads coming from Lecco, Chiavenna and Sondrio - in other words from the plains and from the Alpine passes coming from Switzerland and Austria.
