Itinerary

1. 1

   Villa Troubetzkoy

   10min

   built in the mid-nineteenth century, it owes its name to the Russian prince Alexander Troubetzkoy The prince demolished an extensive cliff with dynamite and for this reason he was called the "turbascogli" by the Blevians. The villa has very sloping pitches with characteristic dormer windows and a bold lift, which goes down to the lake from the Larian road.

2. 2

   Villa Cademartori

   10min

   It is a three-storey building with a turret on the right; the main floor is marked by a series of gabled windows and is underlined by a terrace with statues supported by a trabeated Doric portico which constitutes a sort of pronaos for the main entrance. The park surrounding the residence is particularly noteworthy for the presence of centuries-old trees including an enormous plane tree and a precious cedar of Lebanon.

   10min

   we will pass through Laglio and Clooney's famous Villa.
