Trekking

There are countless trails from where you can enjoy spectacular views. Those passionate about trekking are simply spoiled for choice! The nearby Valgrande National Park is ideal for every kind of trek. Cicogna is easily reachable if you enter the National Park from Ompio. The path is long and challenging but doesn’t present particular difficulties. The new and exhilarating “Lago Maggiore Zipline” is excitement on a wire, in one of the most beautiful panoramas in the world. You have to try it to believe it!

Last but not least we suggest the Lepontic trek: from the waters of Lake Maggiore and Lake Orta to the glaciers of the Formazza valley, up until the Gotthard Pass. A walk on well-marked trails, dominated by the peaks of Mount Rosa, the Pennines and Lepontine Alps. The trek integrates the knowledge of three natural environments: the lake, the hill and the mountain, and lets you discover the ancient history of this area.
