About Nesso

Nesso sits where the Pizzo and Nosée streams tumble through a steep gorge into the lake, a village of stone bridges and quiet shoreline that rewards anyone who wants Lake Como's water and woods without the crowds. The most direct way to take in its cliffs, villas and open water is from the lake itself, whether you captain your own vessel on the Lake Como Self-Drive Boat Rental Without a License or spend a full afternoon afloat on the Lake Como: 5-Hour Private Boat Rental.

Frequently asked questions

Nesso is built around a ravine where two streams meet the lake, so the outdoors here means water, rock and woodland rather than manicured promenades. Boat rentals let you reach the cliffs, coves and shoreline villas that roads cannot, and you can swim straight off the boat in open water.
