Appartamento in Porlezza

Lake Lugano is at Porlezza, with the town at the east end of its Italian arm where the valley opens toward the lake. The Lugano Prealps rise immediately around the settlement, with Monte Galbiga and the ridge toward Monte Generoso in the surrounding landscape. The area is inside the system of the Lake Lugano basin and close to the Val Sanagra and Intelvi valleys. Menaggio on Lake Como is just over the ridge and Lugano in Switzerland is the nearest larger town, with a full range of services, rail links and the regional airport at Agno. The area is known for lakeside tourism, boating and camping, and for the road connection between Lake Como and the Ceresio basin.
