E-Bike Lake Como
E-Bike Lake Como will give you the opportunity to discover the mountains around Lake Como, and in particular, those around the Como shore which are characterised by soft relief, and especially in the southernmost part, by less rocky peaks.
Despite the sometimes steep slopes, they are criss-crossed by paths and dirt roads that are well suited to being explored by bicycle.
The scenery and views are wonderful and exciting whether one stays at lower altitudes or climbs higher up.
E-Bike Lake Como tour will start with a private transfer from Como to the starting point.
After a short funicular ride to Pigra you will follow a military road steadily climbing until you will reach the mountain lodge with its striking structure and pergola terrace overlooking the steep slope down to Lake Como. Here you will take a break, sit down and have something to eat surrounded by a fantastic, fully Alpine panorama. Try the delicious and typical mountain products and home-made dishes. The scenery during the ascent is truly incomparable, first among beech forests, then gradually more open, admiring the lake below you and the Swiss Alps to the north. Not to be missed during your ascent is a visit to one of the ‘malghe’ where cheese is made, you will feel like you are going back in time! Watch out for traffic…..of cows and goats along the route!

Completely surrounded by vineyards, Tenuta La Gatta was originally built as a Dominican convent and its emblem is the bell tower of the small church. The Tenuta was then for years the residence of the Gatti family, from which it took its name, and later became the property of the Mascioni family before being taken over by the Triacca family who restored it to its former glory. Visit to the estate begins with a tour of the vineyard among the terraces along the hill’s contours, a pioneering achievement by the Triacca company.
