Discover Lago Maggiore

One of the largest lakes in Europe, Lago Maggiore is both Italian and Swiss. Its mild climate may have played a part in its original name. The luxuriant vegetation growing on its shores includes large bushes of verbena, which inspired people in medieval times to call the lake "Verbano". In the words of Stendhal: "if you had a heart and a shirt, you would sell your shirt and visit Lago Maggiore"...

Stresa – flamboyant hotels, baroque style

Stresa, a popular holiday destination since the Simplon rail tunnel was opened, has retained its grandeur. The flamboyant hotels in baroque style are located along the lake, with the Grand Hotel des Iles Borromées being the most magnificent. Ernest Hemingway stayed there while recovering from shrapnel wounds, and the hotel is mentioned in his book “A Farewell to Arms”. Stresa is an excellent starting point for an excursion to the Mottarone Mountain or the Borromeo Islands. The town also has its own biscuit brand, the Margheritine di Stresa, named after Margherita of Savoy.

The Borromeo Islands

The Borromeo Islands comprise Isola Madre, Isola dei Pescatori - the only one inhabited - and Isola Bella. The work of Charles Borromeo the 3rd, the Palace and its gardens are an amazing creation. It is a magical world filled with a profusion of palm trees and plants, a water theatre built on three levels, fountains, statues of gods and satyrs and decorations made of numerous shells and pebbles. Not to be missed.

The relics of Saint Julius of Novara, who gave its name to the island, are kept in the crypt.
