Ronco di Pella

Ronco is a fraction of Pella. It is a very characteristic village with stone houses and narrow alleys. In the past it was a place much loved by artists, who stopped here before reaching Orta San Giulio.

Small town with typical old stone buildings and small streets. It is worth mooring there by boat or taking a walk from Pella to get there. Unfortunately there is no gastronomy.

READING TIP: If you want to relax with exciting reading during your vacation on Lake Orta, we recommend the two Piedmont crime novels "Lago Mortale" and "Isola Mortale" by Giulia Conti:
* "In the midst of the shimmering August heat, former police reporter Simon Strasser dreams of nothing more than a refreshing swim in Lago d'Orta and a rain shower. But then he discovers the corpse of an influential factory owner's son on an abandoned yacht. Simon's old instincts are awakened, but still on "Everyone in this tranquil lake seems to have a secret - which must be kept at all costs." (Back cover of "Lago Mortale")
* "After a stormy December night, the body of a woman washes up on the shores of Lake Orta. The dead woman is a young, extremely pretty nun who had recently come to Isola San Giulio to look for her missing mother. She has found out something that cost them their lives? When two more bodies are recovered from the bottom of the lake, Simon Strasser can finally forget about La Dolce Vita. In a case in which nothing is as it initially seems, the former police reporter and the local commissioner once again a perfect team." (back of the book "Isola Mortale")
