Das Dorf liegt in fast 1000 Metern Höhe auf den Varesine Voralpen, im unmittelbaren Hinterland des Lago Maggiore. Für Autos unzugänglich, ist es nur über 1‘400 Stufen oder über eine Seilbahn erreichbar. Ganz aus lokalem Stein gebaut, von den Straßen bis zu den Dächern der Häuser, ist es ein Ort, wo die Zeit stehen blieb und wo die Vergangenheit präsent wird. Von Monteviasco aus sehen Sie den Lago Maggiore.

Embark on a challenging yet rewarding hike on the Monte Gradiccioli loop, starting from Ponte di Piero. This difficult route covers 7.6 miles (12.2 km) and features a substantial elevation gain of 4323 feet (1318 metres), requiring about 7 hours to complete. You'll begin on a steep mule track, climbing towards Monteviasco, before continuing on well-defined paths to Alpe Corte and Capanna Merigetto. The final ascent to Monte Gradiccioli involves grassy slopes and a ridge walk, leading you to the summit where a beautiful granite cross marks your achievement.
To plan your visit, note that the starting point at Ponte di Piero is accessible by road from Luino. Be aware that the funicular to Monteviasco has been closed since 2018, so you will need to hike the initial ascent. This trail demands a good level of fitness, sure footing, and appropriate mountain footwear. Given its difficulty and duration, it's best to start early in the day to allow ample time for the full trek. Always check local conditions before heading out, especially regarding weather and trail accessibility.
From the summit of Monte Gradiccioli, which stands at 1936 metres, you are treated to spectacular panoramic views in every direction. You can gaze upon the central and western Alps, the vast expanse of Lake Maggiore (Verbano), and prominent peaks like Monte Rosa. The vista also extends to Val Formazza, the peaks of Valais, Oberland, Ticino, and the Rhaetian Alps, encompassing the entire Lugano area. For those seeking an even greater challenge, you have the option to extend your hike to other prominent peaks such as Monte Tamaro and Monte Gambarogno, though this would significantly increase the elevation gain.
