The area around Stresa with the Mottarone (1491 m) is a wonderful destination for all seasons. After a short ride on the cable car, you are in the middle of the Alps. In a few minutes you move from the Mediterranean lake landscape to the subalpine area.
To the west of Lake Maggiore, the area rises steeply via Stresa. A cable car takes visitors to Monte Mottarone. In summer you can enjoy wonderful mountain hikes with wonderful views, while in winter the lifts on the downhill slopes are put into operation.
