Description
This out-n-back bike ride takes you to the town of Palanzo and its ancient wine press, or torchio, one of the many wonders to be found on Lake Como. Enjoy spectacular lakeside views before beginning the 6km gentle climb to the medieval town of Palanzo. (Palanzo is also one of the oldest towns around the lake, very well preserved and truly authentic!) After visiting the torchio, which is always open, head back the same way to Bellagio.
