Surroundings (Cossogno)

Val Grande is a rugged and untamed territory nestled between the Val d'Ossola and the Piedmont shore of Lake Maggiore. Today it has become a celebrated tourist destination, thanks to the establishment of the homonymous National Park, which encompasses Italy's and the Alps' largest wilderness area. This is lush nature at its finest, perfect for venturing out on excursions and trekking. The trails are plentiful—you can tackle the more challenging routes with a local guide, or take leisurely walks along historic and cultural paths through the charming villages that surround the park, discovering the region's rich history and traditions. Lake Maggiore is another must-visit destination, just 30 minutes by car from Cicogna, with its most famous tourist centres: Stresa, Verbania, the Pallanza waterfront, and Cannobio. Don't miss Isola Bella and Isola Madre either, with their magnificent villas and stunning flowering gardens.
