Lake Como<\/a> is located north of Milan. It is a very touristy place, easily accessible for a weekend from France. You can reach Milan by plane, train or car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

How do I get from downtown Milan to Como?<\/h2>\n\n

We’ve written a full article on how to get to Lake Como from Milan<\/a>, but here’s a quick summary.<\/p>\n\n

The closest you can get to Lake Como<\/strong> is 50 km from the center of Milan<\/a> if you take the A9 freeway towards the city of Como. It is therefore very easy to visit Lake Como from Milan. It will take you more than 50min<\/strong> if you are not caught in traffic to get to the city of Como<\/strong>. To avoid any disappointment, take an hour and a quarter.<\/p>\n\n

From the Milan<\/strong> train station, you will save time, as it is located to the north, so you don’t have to cross the city. However, allow more than an hour and a quarter if there is traffic and an hour and a half if you leave during the hours when the Milanese leave their work.<\/p>\n\n
