BEACHES AND LAKE MAGGIORE
The Lombardy shore of Lake Maggiore offers numerous beaches, green areas and pleasant lakeside promenades where you can spend relaxing days, swim or simply walk along the water.
Starting from the northern area, in Maccagno con Pino e Veddasca you will find Lido di Maccagno and Parco Giona, one of the best-known bathing areas of the Upper Lake Maggiore, with large spaces close to the water and extensive green areas. In the same municipality there are also Lido di Zenna and Ronco delle Monache beach, ideal for those who prefer quieter and more natural surroundings. The Maccagno lakeside promenade is also perfect for walking and spending a few pleasant hours outdoors.
A little further south, in Tronzano Lago Maggiore, you will find Lido Windsurf, an equipped beach particularly popular with water sports enthusiasts.
In Luino, Le Serenelle beach is located at the end of the lakeside promenade. The long pedestrian route along the lake also offers a pleasant walk close to the town centre, bars and restaurants, with beautiful views over Lake Maggiore.
In Germignaga there are several areas dedicated to relaxation by the water. Parco Le Fontanelle overlooks the lake directly and includes an equipped beach. Nearby you will also find Parco Il Boschetto, with green areas, walking paths and spaces dedicated to children.
Continuing along the coast, you reach Brezzo di Bedero, where the free Cà Bianca beach offers a simple and peaceful place to spend a few hours by the lake.
In Porto Valtravaglia, Lido Valtravaglia is located close to the town centre. The lakeside promenade, bars and restaurants make it easy to combine a day at the beach with a pleasant walk.
In Castelveccana, in addition to Caldè, with its beautiful beach and characteristic village overlooking Lake Maggiore, you will also find Cinque Arcate beach, a more natural and peaceful spot.
These are just some of the beaches along the Lombardy shore of Lake Maggiore. Some are equipped and particularly suitable for families, while others are simpler and surrounded by nature.
During your stay, you can therefore alternate relaxing days by the lake with walks, visits to small villages and excursions to discover the different destinations in the area.
Depending on the location of the accommodation, some of these beaches can be reached on foot or within a few minutes by car, while the more distant ones provide a pleasant opportunity to spend a day discovering Lake Maggiore.
