LAKE MAGGIORE
This breathtaking lake sits just south of the Alps, boasting azure blue waters and a landscape filled with lush green vegetation and colourful fishing villages.
The second-largest lake in Italy is blessed with a mild climate all year round so it’s ideal whether you’re planning to take on the scenic walks, or sit in a local cafe soaking up the culture and glorious sunshine.
Lake Maggiore’s waters are also home to the Borromean Islands including the stunning Isola Bella where you can step into a bygone era thanks to the picture-perfect Italian Baroque Garden, the magnificent palace with its Baroque-furnished living rooms, and the coastal views over the lake that make for the ultimate photo backdrop.
