ABOUT THE TOUR
A scenic e-bike ride connecting three lakes, taking you through peaceful landscapes, small villages and a beautiful nature reserve.
The ride starts in Menaggio, on the shores of Lake Como, or from a nearby starting point to be agreed upon depending on the group's needs. After leaving the lakeside behind, the route gradually enters the countryside, following much of the former Menaggio–Porlezza railway line, now transformed into a peaceful cycling path surrounded by greenery.
The route then reaches Lake Piano, a small and beautiful nature reserve located between Lake Como and Lake Lugano. Cycling alongside the lake is one of the highlights of the experience, offering a peaceful setting away from traffic and surrounded by nature.
From here, we continue towards Porlezza, reaching the shores of Lake Lugano, the third lake of the itinerary. There will be time to relax and enjoy the lakeside atmosphere before starting the return journey towards Lake Como.
The route is approximately 30 km long, with around 350 metres of elevation gain, and mostly follows dedicated cycling paths and quiet, low-traffic roads. It is a pleasant and accessible experience, perfect for discovering a quieter and more authentic side of the area while cycling from Lake Como to Lake Piano and finally to Lake Lugano, along the historic railway route.
