Gravedona lake Como

Gravedona

Gravedona is set in a splendid position along the graceful bay at the foot of the Liro Valley opposite the Piona peninsular and Mount Legnone. Its name has Ligurian roots which indicates a headland or stony shoreline. It has a mild climate and it is mitigated in summer by constant breezes.

The small village centre is rich of historic events. It is characterised by narrow alleyways which plunge directly down to the blue lake-waters, also by steep and never-ending stepways, by houses which lean against each other, with portals and ancient façards.
