Hello my favorite travel hive. My wife and I are traveling to Milan along with Venice, and Piedmont this November. Just curious if anyone has visited the lake Como or maybe Lugano in November. Is the place a boarded up ghost town? We’re considering if it’s worth a day trip at that time of year.

Average November temperatures are 53/45 with 8 days having precipitation. On a sunny day, you likely will have few crowds and certainly there will be some restaurants open especially in Lecco, Como and Bellagio.

Note also that the days will become much shorter, daylight ending around 4:30-5:00pm. Don't think you'll find much nightlife.
Have a great trip!

My mom and I visited Lake Como some years ago in early/mid October. I recall the hotel owner telling us that they close down for the winter in early November and don’t reopen till late March/early April.
Enjoy your trip!
