Camping Alpe Fuin

You simply have to get out and about to hike or bike around here – whatever your level of ability. There are viewpoints and wildlife areas all around for gentle strolls, wildlife spotting and photography, along with bigger challenges like the climb up Monte San Primo (40 minutes’ drive). It’s a fair uphill challenge, but the view over the lakes from the summit makes an excellent reward. For another way to see the scenery, head to Jungle Raider Park Xtreme (20 minutes’ drive) where you can zipline through the trees or have a go at bungee jumping. If that’s a bit too adventurous, make your way to one of the lakeside villages like Lezzeno (25 minutes) for boat hire or boat trips across Lake Como. Speaking of Lake Como, there are several lovely villages to explore along the waterside, each with its own character. The most famed of all, though, is probably Bellagio (40 minutes) – the ‘Pearl of Lake Como’ is a fabulously pretty place to wander around, with churches like Chiesa San Giacomo and gorgeous gardens like those at Villa Melzi.
