Lake Maggiore

Surrounded by the Alps and spectacular landscapes, Lake Maggiore is the perfect setting to relax pleasantly and amuse oneself, enjoying cultural activities and an unspoilt natural environment.  Every little town by the lake, be it Arona, Stresa, Verbania, Cannero Riviera or Cannobbio, has old buildings, parks, Italian gardens and botanical gardens that make the beautiful environment even more amazing.

Lake Maggiore is a great tourist attraction and has plenty of musical and performing arts events, such as the Stresa Music Weeks, the Locarno Film Festival and the Ascona Jazz Festival.

There are many routes for walking or mountain-bike activities on the hills by the lake for nature and sports lovers.
