Lake Como
Hiking in Tremezzina: the trails that start here
The first waymarked trail begins sixty metres from the gate. Above Mezzegra the mountain rises straight away: two kilometres take you from the village at 277 metres to the high meadows at 990, with the lake opening up behind you at every turn. These are shoulder-season walks — in spring and autumn the air is clear and the paths are empty.

Trail map
Before you set out
The lengths and elevations on this page are computed from the routes mapped in OpenStreetMap and from the 25-metre European elevation model. They are measurements, not a guidebook: they do not tell you how long a walk takes, or whether a trail suits you.
Walking time depends on your pace, your pack, the season and the state of the ground. Signs on the trail and CAI information always take precedence over this page.
Mountain weather changes quickly and some sections hold snow well into spring. Ask us at check-in: we will tell you how things stand that week.

Sleep where the trail begins
The apartments are a few steps from the start of trail 886, with a reserved parking space and a kitchen, so you can come back and cook without looking for a restaurant.
