About the BellagioVarenna crossing

Forty-one departures: twenty-one Monday to Saturday and twenty on Sundays. Just three times appear on both — the rest of the day the two calendars run in parallel and never quite meet.

The late end is what distinguishes it

The last boat is 23:05 Monday to Saturday and 23:00 on Sundays — more than three hours later than the Menaggio route manages on any day. For an evening on the eastern shore this is the crossing that works.

Fifteen minutes to the railway

Varenna has the station on the Milan–Tirano line, which makes this leg the practical link between Bellagio and the train. It is the reason the boat runs late and the reason it is busy.

1 July to 4 October 2026

Fourteen weeks of the summer plan. Lake Como reissues seasonally and the winter service on all three centro lago crossings is considerably thinner.
