LOOP DEI TERMS

Piazza
Lago

The main square, where people meet and things happen. Piazza Lago is right in the centre of Colico, near the small harbour. There are restaurants, bars, ice-cream shops and events… The only thing missing is you!

wine
estates

Colico also means wines. The estates are surrounded by greenery, with views of the blue lake and the Legnone. The wines are excellent, the fruit of vineyards illuminated by a unique light and caressed by the Lario breeze.

Molini di
Villatico

A bit of local history. As the oldest part of Colico, the village of Villatico is the witness of a centuries-old story. Walking its streets you can find six mills and some can be visited.

Latteria di
Villatico

Founded in 1915, Latteria di Villatico is the Colico diary, where local farmers collect milk. The result is the best cheese that you can taste here, in the cellar! The smell is something… No, there are no words to describe it!

Abbazia
di Piona

Pray and work. That’s the rule! Consecrated in 1138, Abbazia di Piona is a rare example of Lombard Romanesque and it is placed on the peninsula of Olgiasca in a panoramic position. The plus is that you can visit the abbey guided by the Cistercian monks who live, pray and work here.

events

Concerts, markets, regattas. Every day there is an event in Colico! The calendar, especially in summer, is full of events for everyone. Check out at the link below and save the date!

reserve

Cycling in a beautiful Reserve? Yes, in Colico you can! Riserva Naturale Pian di Spagna e Lago di Mezzola is a unique and precious environment because it is a “nest” for various animal species. The plain is crossed by easy trails, such as Sentiero Valtellina and Ciclabile Valchiavenna. Get your camera ready!

bike

Landscapes and trails! Colico offers the right mix for exploring the area by mountain-bike. On the slopes of the Legnone and Legnoncino mountains, there is always a new trail to try!
