Lake Como is one of the deepest lakes in Europe and the deepest in Italy. Swimming and diving are prohibited in many areas and can be dangerous. For those who want to immerse themselves in the water, however, there are some options. In Montorfano, the lake lido has a swimming pool. In nearby Moltrasio, there is a small beach. In Como city, there is an outdoor pool near Villa Olmo, but swimming in the lake is mostly discouraged or prohibited. Locals and visitors also enjoy going to Nesso, where the bravest can dive into the lake from the ancient Roman bridge near the waterfall.
Lake Como is located in a mountainous region. The surrounding pre-Alps do not seem very high, but the climate is still influenced by the nearby mountains, and temperatures can change quickly. Pay special attention to weather conditions during hikes and bring warm and waterproof clothing!
