メルゴッツォ湖の湖・トップ5

Mergozzo has retained its medieval character. Once known for its location on the old trade route from Italy over the Simplon Pass (Sempione) into Valais, the town feels as if time has stood still, with its narrow, pedestrian streets, pretty churches, and modest houses. The small town's lakeside promenade is particularly beautiful and well-maintained, making for a pleasant stroll.

The trail is accessible again. A path has been laid around the private property, although it's not yet signposted everywhere. But it's fairly easy to find.

A beautiful little village - a detour into the narrow streets and to the church is worthwhile!

The northern section of the route is no longer accessible as it ends in a dead end (private property). Those who don't want to climb over fences and ladders should follow the road for the circular route.

"Lagh da Margözz" in the Ossola dialect, this fascinating body of water is located in the Lepontine Alps and owes its name to the municipality that overlooks it. Here, also thanks to the clarity of its waters, water sports such as canoeing, kayaking, windsurfing are practiced.

Beautiful little town with restaurants on the lake of the same name.

Lake very close to Lake Maggiore, its waters are of a wonderful colour.

Picturesque lake, I personally prefer it to the nearby Lake Maggiore. Some wonderful photos come out here.
