Abbazia di Piona

Reviewed By Flynfnp

We were only in Colico for 24 hours so while my husband was working I drove from Colico to the Abbazia di Pione. The drive is not long (6-10 miles from town center) and pretty well marked. It is quite narrow as you are going through residential areas, so watch speed, my car alarm went off as another car and the one I was driving passed each other. As you near the abby, the road is cobblestone with incredible views of lake, I stopped on way out from the abbey. Once at the abbey, there is plenty of parking, I was the only one there (early November). The monks are silent and pretty much not around, I only saw one and he guided me to the Chapel area then disappeared. Walking around the grounds was so very peaceful with incredible views of the lake. The monks have beautifully landscaped the grounds to take advantage of all the views. This is not a place to spend many hours unless you require that much quiet and reflection. I spent maybe 2-3 hours, looking and taking pictures. Loved it. The store was not open when I was there so could not buy products the monks were selling. I was interested their bee balms and herbal products since I make my own, maybe next time. If you are in the Colico, Lake Como area and are looking for a quiet place to be with beautiful views, this is it.
