In the afternoon, a very pleasant walk awaits us to discover the beautiful Luino, the pearl of Alto Verbano. You will admire Palazzo Verbania (designed as Kursaal in 1904) whose terrace overlooks Maggiore Lake and which, on clear days, allows you to admire not only the coast, but also the mountains that surround it, from Piedmont to Switzerland. A walk on the new lakefront from which you can admire some buildings in Belle Epoque style such as Palazzo Crivelli Serbelloni with the lovely Church of Saint Joseph, the old tramway station, the ferry station, to reach the famous Caffè Clerici where we will taste an Aperitivo.
