Different itineraries for keen walkers
from Mergozzo it is possible to follow several paths immersed in nature, such as the Sentiero Azzurro, which leads to the village of Montorfano along a mule track that runs along the lake.
A trail to follow in every season and within everyone's reach. Following the banks of the lake, parallel to the railway line, you start from Mergozzo to reach Montorfano. This was the ancient road of the "picasass", the stonemasons of Mergozzo, who walked it daily to reach the quarries on the other side of the mountain.
You can follow the path Sentiero Azzurro directly from our Residence, going up to Montorfano and eventually reaching Mergozzo.
A few steps from the Residence, behind the nearby train station, you can access the Cycle Path that extends throughout the area of the Nature Reserve of Fondo del Toce. The reserve can be visited on foot or by bicycle on the 3 main routes. The routes extend from Lake Maggiore to Lake Mergozzo, skirting the river Toce and offering very impressive views.
