The Lago Maggiore is 65 km long and situated in a landscape of exceptional beauty. It extends from the foot of the Alps to the Po plain and is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Switzerland. Lago Maggiore offers visitors clean water, magnificent parks, luscious gardens, imposing mountain chains and charming unspoilt villages and towns.
Due to its exceptionally mild climate, the region is also often referred to as the "Garden of Europe". Many plants and flowers that are not found anywhere else in northern Europe grow here in abundance under the warm sun. Here, the Alps meet landscapes that are typical for the Mediterranean region, creating contrasts that make this area unique in the world.
Lago Maggiore attracts water sport fanatics as well as hikers and trekking fans. The breathtaking mountains, clean water and exotic nature leave visitors with an awesome impression.
