A few steps from the most famous viewpoint of Quarna, a short walk through the woods leads to an incredibly panoramic point above Omegna and its Lake Orta

This panorama can be seen from the Castellaccio picnic area, we are in Quarna Sopra (VB). I would also like to point out that area not far away where there are some "piled up" stones, that is an archaeological area, where, very probably, there was (the stones are what is left of the structure) an ancient watchtower or signal tower... that way of building the "wall" can also be found at the castrum of Gravellona Toce
