Como with Kids: Family-Friendly Things to Do

Como is great with kids: short distances, the lake, and activities that please little ones and grown-ups alike. Here are our favourites.

1. The Brunate funicular

Kids love the funicular ride and the view from the top. Short, fun and spectacular.

2. A boat ride

The boat on the lake is a mini-adventure: colourful villages, villas and plenty of space to move around.

3. Parks and the lakefront

Green spaces and the lakeside promenade are perfect for a gelato break and a chance to stretch little legs.

4. A family cooking class

Getting hands in the dough is a hit at any age. Our cooking class welcomes families (min age 14 to take part fully): a hands-on activity, and you eat what you make!

Key takeaways

  • Everything is close together — ideal with children.
  • The class: minimum age 14 to cook actively.
  • Plan a gelato break — always a winner.
