TRIANGOLO LARIANO

The Triangolo Lariano, composed by the districts of Como and Lecco, is an area between the two branches of the lake: the western branch of Lake Como and the eastern branch of Lake Lecco.

It is an area of natural beauty, cultural and artistic sites and full of history. Zelbio is a quaint little village and you get there by driving along the side of the lake where the famous Bellagio is located. It’s a 10 minutes drive. Before Bellagio, in the village of Nesso, you have to leave the lake and go up to Zelbio, surrounded by beautiful mountains, one of which is the Monte San Primo (1682m), the highest summit in the Triangolo Lariano.
