VARENNA IS WAITING FOR YOU

COME EXPERIENCE ALL THAT THE THE LAKE AND THE SURROUNDING MOUNTAINS HAVE TO OFFER

The crisp air and pure water tone the body and spirit and there are infinite ways to enjoy both the intimacy of the village and the surrounding wide-open spaces while staying safe and comfortable and “socially distant”.

Savor the soothing blue waters from the shore or a private lake cruise. Breath in the fresh air along a scenic trail in the woods. Inhale the scent of vibrant flowers in the lush gardens of a splendid villa. Or soak in the ambience from your own private corner of the village. The wide range of experiences satisfies everyone.
