Varenna is one you slow down for. Stacked in ochre and terracotta above a small fishing harbour on the lake&#8217;s quieter eastern shore, it has kept the shape of the medieval fishing town it always was \u2014 narrow stepped lanes, a waterfront walk barely wide enough for two, and gardens that spill down to the water. It rewards the traveller who wants to feel Lake Como rather than tick it off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eis o que Varenna \u00e9, onde se situa, e as cinco coisas que mais valem o seu tempo assim que desembarcar do ferry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Uma breve hist\u00f3ria<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Varenna \u00e9 antiga \u2014 mais antiga que a maioria dos seus famosos vizinhos. A tradi\u00e7\u00e3o local remonta a funda\u00e7\u00e3o a <strong>28458<\/strong>, quando cresceu como uma comunidade de pescadores na empinada margem oriental. Durante s\u00e9culos viveu do lago e da extra\u00e7\u00e3o da pedra negra <em>M\u00e1rmore de Varenna<\/em> ainda vis\u00edvel nas suas igrejas e portais.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">O seu momento decisivo chegou em <strong>1169<\/strong>. Quando a vila insular de Isola Comacina foi destru\u00edda na longa guerra entre Como e Mil\u00e3o, muitos dos seus refugiados foram realojados aqui, trazendo as suas lealdades e as suas rivalidades \u2014 Varenna aliou-se a Mil\u00e3o contra Como, e pagou por isso quando a cidade rival pilhou a vila. Esse passado multifacetado ainda \u00e9 vis\u00edvel na vila: a colina arruinada <strong>Castelo de Vezio<\/strong> observando a \u00e1gua, as igrejas rom\u00e2nicas e o apertado n\u00facleo defensivo de ruelas que mal mudou em 800 anos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"933\" src=\"https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/villa-monastero-gardens-varenna.jpg\" alt=\"Chafariz e terra\u00e7o junto ao lago no jardim bot\u00e2nico da Villa Monastero em Varenna\" class=\"wp-image-6091\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/villa-monastero-gardens-varenna.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/villa-monastero-gardens-varenna-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/villa-monastero-gardens-varenna-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/villa-monastero-gardens-varenna-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lakecomoexplorer.com\/wp30493\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/villa-monastero-gardens-varenna-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">O terra\u00e7o junto ao lago e a fonte no jardim bot\u00e2nico da Villa Monastero em Varenna.

It sits almost directly <strong>em frente a Bellagio e Menaggio<\/strong>, which is what makes it so useful: the three form the lake&#8217;s central ferry triangle, each a short hop from the others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That position gives Varenna two things its rivals don&#8217;t. It catches the <strong>sol de fim de tarde<\/strong> full on its fa\u00e7ades, and \u2014 facing west across open water \u2014 it offers one of the finest sunset outlooks on the lake. It&#8217;s about 20 km northwest of Lecco and an hour or so by train from Milan, which also makes it the easiest of the classic villages to reach without a car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">As 5 melhores coisas para ver em Varenna<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Villa Monastero e o seu jardim bot\u00e2nico<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The village&#8217;s signature sight. Founded as a Cistercian monastery in the 12th century and later turned into a private residence, <strong>Villa Monastero<\/strong> is really about its garden \u2014 a two-kilometre ribbon of terraces running along the shoreline, planted with cypress, citrus, agave and palms, and studded with statues and follies. The house museum lets you see how the lake&#8217;s grand families lived. If gardens are your reason for coming to the lake, read our guide to the <a href=\"\/pt\/as-5-melhores-vilas-para-visitar-no-lago-como\/\">As melhores vilas e jardins no Lago de Como<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Villa Cipressi&#8217;s terraced gardens<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Logo ao lado, <strong>Villa Cipressi<\/strong> tumbles down to the water in a series of romantic terraces named for the cypresses that frame them. It works as a garden visit and, for many travellers, as somewhere to stay \u2014 a rare chance to sleep inside one of Varenna&#8217;s historic villas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Castello di Vezio<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Uma subida \u00edngreme, mas curta, acima da aldeia leva-o ao <strong>Castelo de Vezio<\/strong>, uma pequena torre de vigia medieval com uma exibi\u00e7\u00e3o de falcoaria e, mais importante ainda, um <strong>panorama<\/strong> que apanha Bellagio, a bacia central e as montanhas l\u00e1 ao fundo. V\u00e1 pela vista; fique pelo sossego.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. A cidade velha e o Passeio dos Amantes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Varenna \u00e9 melhor simplesmente a p\u00e9. Perca uma hora nas vielas a escadaria do <strong>bairro piscat\u00f3rio antigo<\/strong>, depois siga a <strong>Passeio dos Amantes<\/strong> \u2014 the &#8220;Lovers&#8217; Walk&#8221; \u2014 a slender waterside path on stilts that curves along the lake between the ferry pier and the harbour. It is, deservedly, one of the most photographed corners of Lake Como.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Fiumelatte, the &#8220;river of milk&#8221;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the village&#8217;s southern edge runs <strong>Fiumelatte<\/strong>, a cerca de 250 metros um dos rios mais curtos de It\u00e1lia. Corre apenas da primavera ao outono, correndo branco e r\u00e1pido \u2014 da\u00ed o nome \u2014 antes de desaparecer no lago. A sua apari\u00e7\u00e3o sazonal tem intrigado visitantes durante s\u00e9culos; at\u00e9 Leonardo da Vinci notou-o. Um curto caminho sinalizado conduz \u00e0 nascente.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Planear a sua visita<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A chegar.<\/strong> Varenna&#8217;s ferry pier connects it directly to Bellagio and Menaggio on the central triangle, and passenger boats run up and down the lake all summer. If you&#8217;re arriving by train from Milan or Lecco, the station sits just above the village.
