Historic center of Mergozzo

Highlight • Settlement

Mergozzo has retained its medieval character. Once known for its location on the old trade route from Italy over the Simplon Pass (Sempione) into Valais, the town feels as if time has stood still, with its narrow, pedestrian streets, pretty churches, and modest houses. The small town's lakeside promenade is particularly beautiful and well-maintained, making for a pleasant stroll.

Sentiero Azzurro

Highlight • Trail

The hiking trail runs along the north side of Mount Montorfano, which is just 794 meters high. What makes it so special, however, is that it is made of a single block of white granite, hence the many quarries that have been operating there for centuries. The columns of the Church of San Paolo Fuori le Mura in Rome were carved from this white granite from Montorfano.
