Perched on one of the most evocative panoramas of Lake Maggiore, the smallest of the sacred mountains of Piedmont offers a breathtaking view of the Lombard pre-Alps. Among chestnut woods and an ancient archaeological path, there are the sanctuary, three chapels dedicated to the Incoronata, to San Giovanni Battista and to Abraham, and the eighteenth-century portico of the Via Crucis.

The unique atmosphere, the mild climate and the beauty of the lake make it an enchanting and fascinating destination.
