ITALY - Lake District                           

In far northern Italy on the fringes of Switzerland, Italy's magnificent Lake District is spectacular mountain scenery at its best, and the breathtaking beauty of this area is a magnet for tourists.
​​​​The lakes are fronted by varied ranges of the Alps, and dozens of colorful small towns dot the shorelines. A dependable ferry service shuffles passsengers from town to town, and the local roads are first-rate, so driving along the lakes in most areas is easy and safe.

The largest lakes are Lakes Como, Garda, Lugano and Maggiore, but there is more to see.
