Start your jogging adventure around Lake Comabbio on this moderate 8.7-mile (14.0 km) loop, which takes about 1 hour and 33 minutes to complete. You'll experience picturesque panoramic views of the lake and surrounding woodlands, with only 656 feet (200 metres) of elevation gain. The path is mostly a well-maintained cycle-pedestrian route, predominantly paved, though you might encounter short sections of dirt or gravel. A highlight is jogging across the unique 500-meter long wooden platform that extends over the water, offering enchanting views as you run suspended above the lake. This peaceful route is immersed in nature, providing a tranquil escape from vehicle traffic.
This easily accessible loop is suitable for all skill levels, making it a great choice for any fitness level. You will find rest stops and picnic areas along the route, perfect for taking a break during your run. The trail is a popular destination for families, cyclists, and runners alike, ensuring a welcoming atmosphere.
Lake Comabbio is a protected natural oasis within the Lombardy Ticino Park, known for its rich biodiversity. The ban on motorboats helps preserve its tranquility and supports a variety of flora and fauna, including numerous species of ducks and water birds. Keep an eye out for the Brabbia Marsh Nature Reserve, a wildlife sanctuary, and the impressive expanse of lotus flowers that bloom in the summer. The trail also connects to the Lake Varese cycle path, offering options for extended runs if you wish.
