The hike is spectacular....
The hike is spectacular. Breathtaking beautiful views. Ivan is a fantastic and thoughtful guide with deep knowledge about Como and its history. Highly recommend this experience.

Great experience, really!
Great experience, really! The tour started with the funicular from Como to Brunate, which is already worth it. Once we arrived up, with Ivan we went towards the Brunate Lighthouse and the view of the lake was spectacular. After that we took a walk in the woods, very simple and pleasant, nothing tiring, suitable for everyone. The views along the way and once you get to the top are stunning. The pace was quiet, you enjoyed the day without haste. Highly recommended experience for those who want to spend a nice day in nature near Como!

Fantastic trekking above Como!
The tour was wonderful! We started from Como with the historic funicular, and this was already an interesting highlight, to climb to Brunate. From there we started with Ivan first seeing the Brunate Lighthouse, from where the view of the Lake was wonderful. Then we continued with an easy and pleasant trek on a mountain path in the woods, until we reached the tops of mountains very scenic, but affordable for everyone! The pace was quiet and suitable for everyone, so I highly recommend it to those who want to take a pleasant hike in nature just outside Como. On the way back we stopped for lunch at a shelter where we could eat some 'good local food. Thanks again for this wonderful experience!

Why this scores 64
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Lake Como Scenic Hiking Tour with Panoramic Views: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lake Como.
How much does Lake Como Scenic Hiking Tour with Panoramic Views cost?
+
Prices start at $120 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lake Como usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Lake Como Scenic Hiking Tour with Panoramic Views take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lake Como is not rushed.
Is Lake Como Scenic Hiking Tour with Panoramic Views worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lake Como, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Lake Como Scenic Hiking Tour with Panoramic Views?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Lake Como Scenic Hiking Tour with Panoramic Views suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Lake Como Scenic Hiking Tour with Panoramic Views?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lake Como can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lake Como and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Lake Como Scenic Hiking Tour with Panoramic Views start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lake Como within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lake Como?
+
On Outty we rank every Lake Como experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small-Group Lake Como & Lugano: 2 Countries in 1 Day, Boat Cruise, Como, Bellagio & Varenna: Small Group from Milan with Boat Cruise, Small-Group Lake Como: Bellagio, Varenna, Hidden Gorge & Boat. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lake Como?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lake Como?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
