There are numerous locations in Italy where nature offers breathtaking displays. However, the time of the day when the light enhances the beauty of the surroundings is definitely the sunset.

The sunset in Lake Como has an exquisite quality, but what does a stunning sunset actually signify? For others, it’s the orange hue that’s descending behind the Lake Como mountains. For others, it observes the sweeping pink and purple filling the sky above Lake Como. In essence, a lovely sunset can symbolize whatever you want it to. Although we all view the same sunset, we all have different perspectives on it.

The sky is like a colour’s palette, the lake flaming with reflections from the clouds: Lake Como sunsets often leave everyone speechless.

When planning a trip to Lake Como, be sure to include a sunset photoshoot in the program. Lake Como is located at the foot of the Alps. Gentle Mediterranean sun, as well as rain, fog, and clouds create over the lake sunsets of incredible beauty. The sun paints the sky in various colours – from purple to gold.
At Lake Como, the sun is setting behind snow-capped peaks, immersed in the greenery of the mountains. It is an unforgettable performance!

On Lake Como, there are many unique places where you can admire the sunset: Varenna, Bellagio, and Blevio, are just a few.

Sunsets in the cities of the Como region are no less picturesque than on the lake. Tourists love to take pictures of the Duomo in Como, the villas on Lake Como, and the cosy streets of Bellagio and Varenna, whose silhouettes look even more beautiful at sunset.

Here are the most beautiful photos of sunsets from Lake Como.
