    Simple answer, there are mountain railways and lakes in the Ticino canton of Switzerland, right next to Italy. Just head for the Bellinzona/Locarno/Lugano area. Also there is a mountain railway right up close to the Italian border (Monte Generoso). Then you can either stay in Como or Milano, or better still go to Bergamo itself which is an interesting city in its own right

    It’s south of the Alps, so the weather tends to be warmer than the northern regions. Tha wil be pleasant at the end of October.
