Lots to do in Bellano
Unlike bigger and busier towns around Lake Como, Bellano is not overrun by tourists. Visitors are impressed by the beauty of the L’Orrido ravine as they walk along a boardwalk attached to the rocky walls. The town’s apartments showcase stunning views of Lake Como. You can buy fresh fish and watch locals salting and drying fish at the harbor.
