The Alto Vergante is a hilly area that stretches between the shores of Lake Maggiore and the foothills of the Ossola mountains, just a few minutes from Stresa and easily accessible via the A26 motorway. Nestled in greenery and dotted with peaceful villages and forests of chestnuts, beeches, and birches, it offers a captivating landscape and an ideal microclimate for a vacation focused on relaxation, nature, and exploration.
From its proximity to the lakes—Maggiore, Orta, and Mergozzo—to the scenic peaks of Mottarone and the natural parks of Veglia Devero and Valgrande, this region is a true paradise for those who enjoy walking, hiking, cycling, or simply appreciating the scenery. In summer, visitors can engage in water sports, fish in streams, or swim in the lakes, while in winter, ski resorts such as San Domenico, Devero, and Formazza are easily accessible.
The cultural offerings are also abundant: the Sacred Mountains of Domodossola, Ghiffa, and Orta illustrate the connection between faith and art with routes that provide tranquility and breathtaking views. The historic gardens of Villa Taranto, Villa Pallavicino, and the Borromean Islands present botanical experiences of rare beauty. In the nearby towns, local craftsmanship keeps traditions alive in wood, wrought iron, stonework, and embroidery.
The area also hosts significant musical and cultural events, such as the Stresa Music Weeks, the LetterAltura Festival, and the captivating performances of Tones on the Stones, set in ancient stone quarries.
Alto Vergante is a place that beautifully blends scenic beauty, history, sports, and culture, making it perfect for those seeking an authentic vacation in harmony with nature, away from the hustle and bustle yet close to everything.
