Lake Maggiore trip planner

The largest lake in Switzerland, Lake Maggiore is an oasis at the border of Italy and Switzerland. Its mild, Mediterranean climate gives way to an abundance of exotic, tropical plants. Nestled in the shadow of Switzerland's highest mountain, the lake sparkles a deep azure blue and is dotted with islands, home to delicate red and white buildings. Tourist attractions include golf, canyoning, rope parks, falconry, hiking, and bungee jumping. Inhale the smell of jasmine as you walk along the fine white sandy beaches lined with palm trees. Make the most of your holiday in Lake Maggiore by finding out about its attractions and choosing what to see using our Switzerland sightseeing planning site.
