2025 Brunate Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in February)

#bestsunset #100waysoftravel #italy_views #italy #lakecomo#como #Brunate During our visit to Lake Como, we had the chance to ride the Como-Brunate funicular, and we couldn’t have timed it better—we were lucky enough to witness the most breathtaking sunset from the top of Brunate. The panoramic view was nothing short of spectacular, with the golden light casting a warm glow over the shimmering lake and the rugged mountains surrounding it. As the sun slowly dipped behind the horizon, painting the sky in hues of orange and red, the entire landscape seemed to glow with an ethereal beauty. It was a magical, unforgettable moment that perfectly crowned our day of exploring the natural wonders of Lake Como.

#outdooradventure #travel #italy #brunate #como #hiking #daytrip For a breathtaking adventure above Lake Como, ditch the funicular and hike your way up to Brunate instead! The steep yet rewarding trail winds through charming villages, lush woodlands, and panoramic viewpoints that reveal the shimmering waters of Como below. The ascent takes about 1.5 to 2 hours, but reaching Brunate’s unmatched skyline views makes every step worthwhile. Once at the top, visit the Volta Lighthouse for an even higher vantage point or relax at a cozy café overlooking the lake. If you’re seeking a scenic workout with a stunning payoff, this hike is a must!

If you want to explore the best view of Lake Como, go to Brunate. In Brunate you have a view of the lake, you can watch the sunset, and enjoy this view sipping an Aperol Spritz. I chose to sit at the terrace of Trattoria dei Bracconieri. It is a restaurant, so you can have a dinner as welt with this gorgeous view! Absolutely recommend it to every traveler!
