Why Propose in Varenna?

Located between Bellagio and Fiumelatte, Varenna is the ideal spot for couples seeking an elegant yet peaceful proposal setting on the east shore of Lake Como.

Varenna is a romantic alternative to Lake Como’s busier towns. Its cobbled streets, lakeside promenades, and gardens offer a peaceful, timeless setting. Popular spots include the Lovers' Walk and Villa Monastero. You can also plan an engagement session before or after your proposal.
