    The old port delights with its architectural charms
    Nowadays, the older port is more of a representative character. Shipping traffic tends to play a subordinate role in the older port area. Much more important is its design, which testifies to your attention to detail.
    The fantastic column made of granite by Montorfano is a feast for the eyes. The older port can also be recognized by its old landing stage.
    The newer port of Intras is of particular importance for the whole of Lake Maggiore. Ferries to all other ports on Lake Maggiore set sail from the port. The port is particularly important, however, because it is the only area on the west side of the water that acts as a port of call for the only car ferry far and wide. This ferry picks up every 20 minutes and shuttles back and forth between Intra and the Lombardy Lavenno on the east bank. Because of this traffic on the water, the ferry saves many drivers a long detour. Finally, the southern bypass via Sesto Calende and Besozzo with 120 kilometers would be the shorter option.
    The northern bypass, which includes cities such as Cannobio, Locarno, Zenna and Luino, is another ten kilometers longer. This port of Intra greatly facilitates traffic on and around Lake Maggiore. That is why the port area also regularly serves as a start and end point for boat excursions to Villa Taranto, Pallanza or the Borromean Islands.

      There is a small ice rink in the port terminal during Christmas time.

        From there the boats start in the direction of the Borromean Islands, Bavano and Stresa.
        The car ferries to Laveno also start here.
