About HistoryComo Lake is one of the most beautiful Italian Lakes. It is situated in a basin surrounded by mountains. The lake offers quite a varied landscape, with colourful scenery and surroundings all year round. The largest town on the south-west coast is Como, with historical monuments, and wonderful shops for that special purchase of Italian fashion and the weekly market where you can find everything from designer shoes and bags to pots and pans. The old roman road passing Cernobbio (Villa D'Este) Menaggio (Golf course) passing Isola Comacina (the only island in the lake) leads up to Gravedona and further up into Switzerland and Austria. This road was of great importance to the Romans for both conquering the barbarians, and for transport. You can also criss-cross the lake by boat with regular services. In Gravedona are plenty recreational activities regarding water sports. About Weather/Climate/TemperatureThe area has a temperate climate in summer and pleasant temperatures in winter favoured by the warm "tramontana" wind descending from the Alps. Being south of the Alps especially in winter there are many days of cloudless weather, where as in summer thunderstorms, which last a few hours, refresh the air.About GolfingIn Menaggio ( 15 km) 18 holes, from which a panoramic view on the lake . This is the oldest golf course in Italy as it was founded in 1907 and in Lanzo ( 30 km) 9 holes in Val D'Intelvi up in the hills at 600 m. altitude, or Lugano at 40 km, or Como 46 km.
