2025 Lesa Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in August)

POV: You accidentally stumbled into an Italian postcard and now you’re eating lake fish rigatoni like a soft life goddess. Lunch with a view? Isola dei Pescatori’s seashore gem is straight outta a postcard. Glassy water, sailboats drifting by, and the kind of soft breeze that makes you question every life choice that isn’t living here. The seafood? So fresh it probably swam onto the plate voluntarily. The wine? Hitting just right. The vibes? Immaculate. If peace had a taste, it’d be this view and a plate of lake fish rigatoni. Fully living my ‘eat pasta, feel feelings’ fantasy. 義大利北部的Lago Maggiore (馬焦雷湖) 是境內第2大湖，可以慢活欣賞湖的靜謐優美跟博羅梅奧家族的人文歷史。三大島嶼中的Isola Madre (母親島)、Isola dei Pescatori (漁夫島) 及Isola Bella (美麗島)各有特色！ 早上，在米蘭前往斯特雷薩城Stresa的火車上睜開睡眼惺忪的眼睛，一望無際的馬焦雷湖跟天空好近好舒服💛 三島各有千秋，玩夠就跳上船向下一個島出發⛵️陸地與海洋還有天空的交會有夠讓我着迷。意大利的食物真的很合我的胃，大口吃湖魚意大利餃，人生真好。 🍝Trattoria Ristorante Imbarcadero 📍Via Lungo Lago, 12, 28838 Isola dei Pescatori VB, Italy #isolamadre #isolabella #italy #stresa

Among them, Cannobio has a huge inflatable water play structure installed in the summer, and you can also rent paddle boards or kayaks around the lake, so it is recommended for those who want to enjoy active water play.

#AutumnHo-cationEvent The market day at Lago Maggiore was a really fun time to experience the local culture firsthand. There were a variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, and local specialties, and the friendly smiles of the local merchants were impressive. In particular, it was great to be able to taste and buy local specialties such as cheese, olive oil, and fish. The atmosphere was lively and full of traditional feeling, so it was a special experience for tourists as well. I recommend it as a great opportunity to enjoy a leisurely walk by the lake and then buy a simple snack or souvenir at the market.

Swimming in the lake was truly a special experience. The water was clear and refreshing, rejuvenating both body and mind. The scenery, with the Alps and charming villages around, was incredibly beautiful. Even though the weather was warm, the water was a bit chilly. However, after swimming, you could relax by the lakeside and enjoy the view. Essential gear includes aqua shoes. It's a perfect time to heal in nature, highly recommended.

Intra town is also a perfect place to stroll around and feel the lake and local atmosphere, so I highly recommend it.

The hotel is quite far from Milan so location not best for Milan visit but good for visit in Lesa area. Bus and train only goes until 8 pm so that should be taken in consideration. In the evening there is also a problem with taxi also. The single room is small and the shower is very small and with a step also as bathroom which is not good for mobility issues. The breakfast is not good for veg(etari)ans. Bed is ok and also the pillows. One good aspect is the heat in the room and there is a nice view from the room, balcony. I understand it is good for cycling#trip and the ladscapes around are beautiful so for #cherryblossom2024 is an option and so I choose this place for #mytravelhacks this spring which I wish you all be good.
