Travel
We recommend renting a car at the Airport to explore and fully enjoy the beauty of the Lago Maggiore area.
Tour of Isole Borromee
The Isole Borromee on Lake Maggiore are stunning attractions not to be missed. We recommend visiting:
Isola Bella: Explore Palazzo Borromeo and its Italian Baroque Garden.
Isola Madre: The largest island with a renowned 20-acre park.
Isola dei Pescatori: Offers charming fishing villages and picturesque lake views.
Access to the islands is available via service boat or motor launch from Stresa, Verbania, Baveno, and Arona.

Parco Pallavicino
Parco Pallavicino is one of the most evocative places on Lake Maggiore. It's a lovely park where you can enjoy nature at its finest, with a botanical garden and over 60 species of animals. It's the perfect spot for a relaxing day out.
Eremo di Santa Caterina del Sasso
Perched on a rocky cliff that juts out over the lake, the Hermitage of Santa Caterina del Sasso is certainly one of the most charming sights of Lago Maggiore.
Lago d'Orta
The small peaceful cousin of the majestic Lago Maggiore, Lago d'Orta is an authentic gem set between the green of the Alps and Piedmontese woods.
The shores of the lake are dotted with small picturesque villages, ancient fishermen villages and harbors.
Parco del Mottarone
The Mottarone mountain rises between lakes Maggiore and Orta. From the summit, the view extends from the Maritime Alps to Monviso, from the closest Monte Rosa massif to the Swiss Alps, ending in the Po Valley.
If you enjoy hiking, immersing yourself in nature, and savoring breathtaking views of the lakes, the summit of Mottarone is the ideal destination.
