Baveno is a delightful town, ideally located on the shores of Lake Maggiore for visiting the beautiful Borromean Islands, Villa Taranto gardens and other lakeside towns which are all easily reached by the regular ferry service : the best way to explore the area is to buy a 3- or 7-day ferry pass. Not to be missed is Baveno’s Romanesque church with baptistry tower and beautiful frescoed cloister; its Monday morning market; and public gardens with the Villa Fedora where the composer Umberto Giordano once lived. Other attractions include Mt. Mottarone, reached by funicular from Stresa; St. Catherine’s Monastery and the quaint old town of Orta. Excursions further afield to Lake Como, Milan and Zermatt can be booked locally. Another must is the excursion through the Centovalli (literally 100 valleys) going first by train to Domodossola, then by narrow gauge railway through picturesque Alpine scenery to Locarno, and ending with a leisurely 2-hour cruise on a ferry back to Baveno.
Local activities tennis, golf, mountaineering, wind-surfing, water skiing, swimming, walking, sailing, cycling, fishing, ski, mountain biking
