Train station/Ferry stop Varenna
We are travelling into Varenna railway station and wish to get to the ferry stop for the trip to Bellagio. How far is the station from the ferry. We do not wish to walk - is there a bus or a taxi?

The distance is roughly 700 yards. Ten minutes on foot, downhill. There are usually one or two taxis at the station meeting arriving trains. Skip the taxi unless it's raining or you have heavy luggage.

Believe me, the operative term on this "journey of a very short lifetime" is DOWNHILL.
Does your luggage roll? Hop on and ride it if nothing else!
At the bottom while you've hanging around and waiting for the next ferry, stop into the litle hotel/cafe across the street and have a drink and start hanging out..you've finally arrived at THE lake! Enjoy.

Walk. It's so easy and the train station is close to the ferry (no more than 7 minutes if you are walking slowly). There may be a taxi. When I arrived there was 1 taxi but it had already been taken.
