On the south side of the Alps, Lake Maggiore is the second largest lake in Italy. Since the climate is mild year-round, the area is filled with Mediterranean vegetation and exotic plants. Lake Maggiore was featured in Ernest Hemingway's infamous novel, A Farewell to Arms, when the protagonist and his lover must row across the lake in order to escape the Italian Carabinieri (think police in military uniforms). Here's hoping you won't have any run-ins of that nature.

Stresa is by far the best town to visit if you want to see the glory of lake maggiore, especially if you are visiting from milan, take the train to stresa or drive and the views of lake maggiore are spectacular. But the best way to see lake maggiore is by the cable. The cable takes 20 minutes to get to the top. With a half way stop in alpino to change cars, or you can visit the alpino botanic gardens. Then to the very top take the chairlift that is not as scary as it looks. The views from the top of Mottarone are spectacular. You can see the alps, 5 other lakes and the many towns of lake maggiore and the borromeo islands. The views are very epic from the cable car itself. It can get scary in some parts especially when going up, but the view is very worth it. The cable car is also very reliable has it was the first electric one in Italy.
