A WONDERFUL CHURCH IN CIVATE

This is the church of San Pietro in Civate. This church is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This is one of the most famous murals of the church. In this mural you can see archangel Michele and his angels piercing the seven-headed dragon, which represents the devil.

Parchment

Our area is full of lakes and mountains and living here is a pleasure and a joy, even though we are quite far from the sea which waters Italy for the most part. Instead, we are only 20 km far from Switzerland, the paradise of chocolate…;)

In this e-book we’d like to show you the beauty of our land in autumn, when woods and mountains colored gold, red and yellow. We hope you’ll have fun browsing these pages and you will be curious to learn something more about our places.

Our school is located in Eupilio, between two lakes: Lake of Pusiano and Lake of Segrino. The second one is surrounded by mountains. It is a small glacial lake and its shape is long and narrow. Lots of people go to Lake of Segrino during the whole year, to enjoy its 6-km-long cycle path. 

Here you can run, ride a bike, swim, go boating and much more. In summer you can also set up delightful barbecues with your friends and here you can spend a beautiful time with your family.

A MOUNTAIN RANGE EMBRACES THE LAKE OF COMO

What a beautiful landscape from here! This is the view of the lake from a point called St. Primo (1682 mt). In front of you, the Alps and below the town of Bellagio. Everyday many boats sail across the lake of Como, carrying tourists from all over the world.

The Mount Cornizzolo The Mount Cornizzolo dominates the village. Local children think Cornizzolo is the dad of the small town of Eupilio. It is a good place to walk with your dog and to practice many sports. You can easily see multicolored hang gliders over your head!

This is what we see when we look through the school windows. We can admire the Lake of Pusiano and the natural environment which surrounds us: in fact, our territory is rich in forests and woods. In sunny days, the view is breathtaking. On the right you can see the small Cypress Island.

The lake of Pusiano is well known all over Europe because it is the favourite training place for kayak teams, coming from different countries. This is due to its extremely calm waters: canoists say that sliding over them is an unforgettable experience!

In the small village of Civenna, where some students live, there is a viewpoint,&nbsp;from where we can see the Lake of Como. The Lake of Como - also named Lario - is the pride of Italy! Famous artists have fallen in love with it in the past, and the American actor George Clooney has got a villa there, where he invites celebrities from all over the world.&nbsp; From Civenna you can reach Bellagio, a characteristic village on the Lake of Como, so beautiful that a copy of it was created in Las Vegas in 1998.
