The holiday site is ideally positioned between the heart of the Alps (Rosa Berg) and the beautiful Lake Maggiore. Numerous walks and mountain bike tours can be made right from the site, like to the Val Grande Park which is only 20 minutes away. The park is a mix of valleys and woods; a unique opportunity to experience a scenery of more than a thousand years old. Besides, nature reserves as Fondotoce, Sacri Monti di Ghiffa, Orta and Domodossia are easily reached from the residence. Other things to do are surfing, swimming, diving, canoe and sailing. You can also rent a motorboat and pay a visit to the wonderful gardens and picturesque fisherman houses at the Borromee Islands. For instance: the Palazzo Borromeo on the island of Bella. The Lake Maggiore is also famous because of its infinite gardens of 16th and 17th century villa’s, like Villa Taranto in Verbania. This is home to the largest botanical garden, containing rare plants, in Europe. Special tour guides are available at the reception of the holiday site.
