Tips

Antonino Pigafetta

Hiking

The historic center of Gravedona, known as "Castello", is full of small squares, houses leaning against each other, alleys and steep staircases that plunge into the blue of the lake. Here it is still possible to admire the remains of the old castle walls and the Belvedere, called Pra' Castello, from which you can enjoy an enchanting panorama of the Lario. Among the elegant ancient buildings, in Via Volta at number 2, the house where Alessandro Volta stayed is worthy of note.

The town, which emerged in pre-Roman times in the Middle Ages, was quite wealthy, not least because of the valuable Strada Regina road that connected Como with Northern Europe.
Not far from the Palazzo you will find the "Castello" (castle), the old town, with many squares, houses built close together, small streets and steep, endless stairs that lead into the blue of the lake.

Hiking

Beautiful, narrow, cool streets cross the old town and small shops invite you to stroll and shop.
