The Como half marathon is a certified 21.097 km race along Lake Como, beginning in Como city centre. It is listed on the Italian athletics federation's national calendar. The route features climbs that can challenge runners aiming for a personal best.
The course passes through Cernobbio, including a section by Villa Erba, and continues through Moltrasio and Carate Urio, known for their narrow streets, stairways, churches, and small shops. Before the halfway point, it briefly enters Laglio, a village associated with George Clooney. The finish line is located before Villa Olmo, a neoclassical villa designed by architect Cantoni, situated near a major park in Como province.
