Don't let Isola Bella and Madre be the only two Borromean islands you see when on Lake Maggiore. Visit Isola dei Pescatori for a glimpse at a true fishermen's island.
Intra is the perfect town to visit on Lago Maggiore—rain or shine. You can stroll the alleys in search of food, spend a whole day locked up shopping in Reptile's House, stay up late drinking, or visit the local market on Saturdays.
With multi-colored houses, cafes, and gates lining the cobbled alleys of the medieval town of Orta San Giulio, finding things to do on Lake Orta is easy.
