Where to sleep
As we were traveling by van, we camped on Lake Como. We first looked for a nice campsite in Lenno (“Campeggio La Vedo”). For us, the campsite was in the perfect location for all our excursions. The adjacent restaurant was also very good (we particularly recommend the pizza), the sanitary facilities were well maintained and the staff were friendly. We also really liked the village of Lenno, as it wasn't quite so touristy, so I would also recommend non-campers to look for accommodation there. There is also the beautiful Villa del Balbianello in Lenno!
We spent the last night wild camping. We chose a great location via Park4Night at the mountain lake “Lago di Pusiano” between Como and Lecco (10 Via Cristoforo Colombo). There was a beach by the lake with a jetty leading into the water. We spent a romantic last evening there.
