1. Como Rental Solutions (4.7/5, 614 reviews)
At the tip of Lake Como, the city of the same name blends Lombard elegance with mountain scenery. Cycling comes into its own along the lake, on the Greenway that runs up the western shore, and to reach the villages lining the water.
Why rent a bike in Como?
- The lakefront (lungolago): the waterside promenade, from Piazza Cavour to Villa Olmo.
- The Lake Como Greenway: a gentle path linking the villages of the western shore (Colonno, Lenno, Tremezzina), among villas and gardens.
- Cernobbio and the villas: the chic shore of the lake, within reach.
Which bike to choose in Como?
The lake shores are hilly: here the electric bike is the great ally. For the waterfront and the lungolago, a city bike is enough.
Bike rental rates in Como
Rates vary by type of bike (city, electric) and duration. Compare them live on each shop's page, and book the day before in high season.
Our route ideas

How much does it cost to rent a bike in Como?
+
-
Prices vary by shop. City bikes are the most affordable, while electric bikes — the best choice for the steep lakeside hills — cost more, typically €30–50 a day, and road bikes vary. Weekend and multi-day rentals are cheaper. On Lokki you can compare prices across local Como shops before you book.
What are the best bike rides around Lake Como?
+
-
The scenic Greenway del Lago di Como follows the western shore through villages like Colonno, Lenno and Tremezzo, past grand villas and gardens. For a classic climb, ride up to the Madonna del Ghisallo, the cyclists' shrine, or to Brunate for panoramic views over the lake and the Alps.
Are electric bikes or classic bikes better at Lake Como?
+
-
An electric bike is highly recommended around Como. The lake is ringed by steep hills and the roads climb sharply away from the water, so an e-bike lets you enjoy the villages, villas and viewpoints without exhausting climbs. A classic city bike is fine only for the flat lakefront and the town centre.
Can I cycle the Greenway of Lake Como?
+
-
Yes. The Greenway del Lago di Como is a scenic route of around 10 km along the western shore, linking villages such as Colonno, Lenno and Tremezzo on a mix of quiet lanes and paths, some unpaved. It is a lovely, gentle way to see the villas and gardens; a city, hybrid or electric bike suits it well.
Do I need to book my bike rental in Como in advance?
+
-
Lake Como is busy through spring and summer and the best bikes and e-bikes sell out quickly, so booking ahead is recommended. On Lokki you can reserve your bike online before you arrive, choose your dates and size, and have it ready when you reach the shop.
