Lake Orta viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Between Vaciago and Vaciaghetto, this panoramic point on the eastern shore of Lake Orta allows you to best observe the territories of the former Riviera di San Giulio (or Episcopal principality of San Giulio), an autonomous state entity between 1219 and 1767, which later became a Savoy fiefdom.

Prarolo Beach Pier, Lake Orta

Highlight • Beach

In the sometimes quite steep climbs in the surroundings of Lake Orta, it is easy to sweat. Here is the right swimming spot to do something against the overheating. A wooden bathing jetty protrudes about 20 meters into the Lago d'Orta and helps with three ladders when leaving the lake. The water has up to 25 degrees in mid-summer and 20 degrees in the fall.

View of Lake Orta and San Giulio Island

Highlight • Viewpoint

The town, which has just over 1200 inhabitants, is located on the shores of Lake Orta, one of the most beautiful and romantic stretches of water in Northern Italy. The historic center winds through narrow stone streets that touch the water and characteristic structures much loved by tourists.

Circumnavigation of Lago d'Orta - at the beginning on the original mountain bike route, but then unfortunately too difficult for a tandem after Ronco, so we switched to the road. Beautiful landscapes and insights.
