Stresa is a holiday resort on the Italian Lago Maggiore. Among the most famous buildings are the Villa Pallavicino with its gardens and a zoo, and the Grand Hotel des Borromées, where writer Hemingway once slept. Boats leave from the lakeshore in the direction of the Borromean Islands with their palazzi, villas, a fishing port and the Della Bambola Museum. Overlooking the lake, Monte Mottarone offers a toboggan run and botanical gardens.

View of the Borromean Islands

Highlight • Viewpoint

In the 14th century the Borromeo family, powerful feudal lords of the current Milanese area and originally from San Miniato in Tuscany, became owners of the islands that still bear their name today. They are different and of various extensions: the largest are Isola Bella and Isola Madre and from this point in the locality of Roncaro they can be seen in all their beauty.
