THE TOUR AT A GLANCE

Theme: Adventure - Fun
Guide: Guide included

The territory of Lake Como has always stood out for its panorama and its landscapes and this is thanks also to its majestic mountains as well as its beautiful lake. In the middle of these splendid mountains we meet a territory to be discovered: Valsassina, renowned for its unspoiled nature, the hiking trails that can be carried out on the Grigne to the west and on the Orobie Alps to the east and north and for its cheeses. Spending a weekend in this beautiful valley means taking the opportunity to get to know a destination that has so much to offer and that you will certainly not easily forget. Our package offers a stay with the main experiences you can live in Valsassina with an overnight stay in a delightful family-run bed & breakfast, perfect for a city escape!

The B&B Gli Gnomi is located in the hamlet of Primaluna, an ancient medieval village, the location is strategic as it is located right in front of the Grigna and offers its guests a breathtaking natural landscape and is also an excellent starting point to leave for all excursions. It is close to various services such as: trattorias, bars, restaurants, pizzerias. Each room has its own private bathroom located outside the room along the corridor, the double room has an access to the terrace.
