Najlepszy widok na jezioro COMO | Włoskie Alpy
Daj nam suba!
Gdzie znajdziesz najlepszy widok na jezioro Como we Włoskich Alpach? Dowiesz się wszystkiego w tym krótkim filmie.
Podczas naszych włoskich wakacji (tak naprawdę był do dłuższy weekend :D) nagraliśmy krótki przewodnik gdzie i jak zobaczyć jezioro Como z wysokości! W tym regionie znajduję się parę większych jezior! Jednak Como nas urzekło - jest otoczone przepięknymi włoskimi alpami. Zdecydowanie uwielbiamy podróżować po takich miejscach.
