The most inviting route of the hamlet of Tremezzo is the one that develops around the Sampietro Porticoes. Under the arcade there are numerous bars, restaurants and local craft shops. The church of San Bartolomeo is found on the bank opposite the landing stage. Only some parts of the stone structure remain of the original building dating back to the 12th century. The rest is the result of a restoration in the Baroque period.

Lenno rises on the western shore of Lake Como, here begins the coastal area called Costa della Tremezzina. The origins of Lenno date back to the first Roman Empire; the territory was colonized by Greek colonists, sent here by Julius Caesar at the time of the foundation of New Como, settlers who introduced the cultivation of vines and olives, still visible today a centuries-old oil mill for the production of olive oil from high quality. It is believed that here Pliny the Younger had his villa called Comedia, from where he could fish while comfortably looking out the window. Lenno enjoys a mild and dry climate, which favors the growth of Mediterranean-type vegetation, located in a bay so beautiful that it deserves the name of Gulf of Venus. Numerous the splendid villas of Lenno, we remember Villa Cassinella of Mantegazza and the incomparable Villa del Balbianello, built in 1787 by Cardinal Durini, the villa then passed into the ownership of the Arconati-Visconti family, after numerous changes of ownership it was bought by Guido Monzino who , at his death, he bequeathed it to the FAI, the Italian Environment Fund. Among the historical buildings that rise in the territory of Lenno, we point out the Abbazia dell'Acquafredda, reachable through a path surrounded by olive trees; so called from a spring that flows nearby, it was built in the 12th century; the current building, with a single nave and two side chapels, is adorned with stuccoes and paintings, some by Fiamminghino (1621). The church of Santo Stefano, inside frescoes of the fourteenth century, some to be attributed to the school of Luini, in the hamlet Portezza we meet the church of San Vincenzo dating back to the eleventh century. Not far from the town of Lenno is Giulino di Mezzegra where Benito Mussolini and Claretta Petacci were shot on the morning of April 28, 1945.
