Nearby: Staying at the RIA APARTMENT you are a 5-minute walk from the historic centre of Como, where you can stroll through the cobbled streets, its shops, bars and restaurants, churches and pretty squares. In 10 minutes you can reach: the famous Piazza Duomo, with its marvellous cathedral and its Broletto, both worth a visit; Piazza San Fedele, a pretty little square with the Romanesque basilica of the same name; Via Vittorio Emanuele, one of the most famous streets for shopping; Piazza Volta, very lively for aperitifs and after-dinner drinks all year round; Porta Torre, one of the historic entrances to the walled city. It takes less than 15 minutes on foot to reach Piazza Cavour, the largest square in Como, in front of which it is possible to take the Navigazione Lago di Como boat and reach the most famous places on the lake (Cernobbio, Blevio, Torno, Laglio, Argegno, Menaggio, Bellagio, Varenna). On foot, or by renting city bikes, you can reach Villa Olmo and its park by taking the picturesque walk from the Hangar, and Villa Geno by taking the lakeside Viale Geno. At the beginning of Viale Geno there is also the Funicular railway station to reach Brunate and its lighthouse, where you can stop for lunch in one of the many restaurants, or continue with a panoramic trek towards the Lario mountains, with a break in one of the mountain huts you will encounter along the way. For trekking enthusiasts, the Alda Merini path starts from Via Tommaso Grossi, part of the Lake Como Poetry Way, which in an hour of intense but scenic ascent leads to Brunate, passing also by the picturesque Hermitage of San Donato.
