The best gelato on Lake Como, period. They even sell tubs to take home, which most locals do.

Sightseeing
If you only see one villa on Lake Como, see this one.
Possibly the best location for a house on the whole lake, it has featured in several films (Star Wars and James Bond) and is rumoured to have been built the site of one of Roman emperor's villa.
Now a national museum with a quirky collection belonging to the last owner, an aristocratic Italian explorer. The formal gardens are absolutely stunning.
Check the opening times before you go as they are a bit strange and consider walking there from the park outside the Lido di Lenno (about 20 minutes, some uphill).

Parks & Nature
This is a long walk (3-4 hours round trip, very steep in parts) but for those who are active and fit definitely worth the hike.
At the turning point in the trail, hidden deep in a forest valley is a 1000-year old monestary which is still used in religious festivals.
Keep your eyes and ears open for deer, foxes and wild boar.

A small farming community in the hills above Lenno and Mezzegra, this is another steep climb of 1-2 hours but you are rewarded with amazing lake views all the way up.
