Perledo

Perledo spans the transition from Lake Como’s eastern shore to the slopes above it in Lombardy, a position that has connected its scattered hamlets with both the water and the mountain interior. The municipality includes Vezio, where Castello di Vezio, a medieval fortress, stands on a promontory above the lake. Below, the shore road and railway follow Lake Como’s eastern branch through the well-known area around Varenna; higher up, lanes lead among stone-built settlements and wooded ground. Perledo provides a useful perspective on how communities occupy the steep Lecco side of the lake, beyond its celebrated waterfront towns.
