Orta San Giulio

The normal ship cruising on the lake runs to the island San Giulio several times a day. There are also many taxi boats available. However, the view of the island from the outside is much nicer than from the inside (narrow street with high walls). We suggest renting a rowing boat and rowing around the island!

The picturesque medieval small town of Orta is the only locality in the area that is heavily frequented by tourists. Nevertheless, you'll find it fascinating to explore the generous central square facing the island San Giulio, the narrow alleys with many small shops, as well as the Sacro Monte with 20 chapels dedicated to Saint Francis.
