Orta San Giulio - Lake Orta
Orta San Giulio - Lake Orta - Faith, nature, history and beauty - Lake Orta, with its 13.4 km long and 2.5 km wide, is a real jewel between the green of the Alps and vast hill forests. The silent little cousin of the majestic Lake Maggiore. The shores of the lake are dotted with small picturesque villages, ancient villages and marinas that tell the story of the life of the fishermen who were once the most numerous inhabitants of Lake Orta. Today, however, they are the accumulation of modern stories of pleasure boats and ports, of international quality tourism. Orta is an ideal destination for families, couples looking for a romantic place to relax, sports lovers and for young and old who love nature and its energy.
