Ascona and Locarno

Excursion by private vehicle from Stresa, lake Maggiore, lake Orta and surroundings.

Most of lake Maggiore is in Italy but one fifth of its surface is in Switzerland, in the canton of Tessin - Ticino, Italian-speaking part of Switzerland. There we find the two nice towns of Ascona (smaller) and Locarno (bigger).

Ascona is very elegant, with a nice lake-front lined with cafés and restaurants and pedestrain alleys.

Locarno, a very pleasant town, offers many options for shopping and restaurants and also many interesting corners to discover, especially in the old town and around the large square known as Piazza Grande embellished by old porticos.

A building which is Worth visiting is the Church of Madonna del Sasso built on the rockes behind the town centre that can be reached by car and by funicular from the town centre.
