From Bellano: Guided Hike to Varenna via Sentiero del Viandante

Discover Lake Como on a guided hike from Bellano to Varenna. Walk along the historic Sentiero del Viandante, explore traditional villages, and enjoy panoramic views of the lake and mountains.
Meet your guide at Bellano railway station and set off on a hike along the ancient mule tracks of the Sentiero del Viandante. This historic route once connected the communities of the Lake Como area with Valtellina and the Alpine passes beyond.

This is a genuine hiking experience, not a walking tour: about 6 km with 300 m of elevation gain and loss. The route includes uneven paths, woodland trails, and uphill and downhill sections. Reasonable fitness and hiking shoes are required.

Before starting the hike, visit the famous Orrido di Bellano, a spectacular natural gorge carved by the waters of the Pioverna River. Entrance tickets are purchased separately at the entrance.

Walk through terraced olive groves and traditional rural landscapes, and discover how local communities lived in the past, learning about their agricultural traditions, local economy, and cultural heritage.

The trail then enters a beautiful woodland area, where a succession of uphill and downhill sections leads you to Gittana, a charming hamlet known for its beautiful church surrounded by greenery.

From Gittana, descend toward Varenna, enjoying increasingly spectacular views of Lake Como, the mountains, and the famous Bellagio peninsula.

Finish your hike in Varenna, one of the most picturesque villages on the lake. Here, enjoy its charming waterfront and the famous lakeside walkway, with wonderful views across the water.
