Benvenuto  e  Buongiorno

    City of Lugano

elcome to the Italian Lakes website.  Our site features Lake Como, Lake Lugano, Lake Maggiore and the region of Lombardy. We also present content and photos of the canton of Ticino, the Italian speaking region of Switzerland and other areas easily reached from the lakes.  Grazie for visiting and we sure hope you find enjoyment browsing our site.

We provide an extensive amount of information, photos and resources on Italy's lake district.  We hope you will also enjoy our personal accounts of living and adventuring in the Italian Lakes.  We are constantly exploring this region and finding new towns and things to do so please come back often to view our site.

ItalianLakes.com is different from many travel sites, as it is a site that shows the perspective of a non-Italian couple, living everyday life in this beautiful region of Italy.

(For general information about Italy, move mouse here.)

On our site we have presented a wide selection of quality vacation rentals for your review.  In addition we have listed resources for hotels, restaurants and real estate.  We also recommend books and online shopping from affiliated sites.
 

The site has many photos to fully show the beauty of the Italian Lakes.  To get a feel for the Lake Maggiore, Lake Lugano and Lake Como area, see our interactive lakes map.  Just click on a town and view a photo and description of the town.

To learn the Italian language and have the most fun with it, we suggest coming to Italy and taking courses.  To learn more, read about the courses offered by Cactus Language.  Or if you live in the UK you might want to take a language course at home. Both St. George International Business Languages and Language Trainers offer you good opportunities.

From Mt. Galbiga high above Lake Lugano, see a 360° birds eye view of Lake Lugano and Lake Como. The panoramic view will give you an idea of the dramatic beauty of this area.

Book hotel reservations in Italy and Europe from  Venere.com's website.  Very reliable and cater to all budgets.

A beautiful park of 30,000 m2 is the paradise surrounding the HOTEL**** Parco San Marco, on the shores of Lake Lugano and dreamlike in atmosphere.
