The city of Verbania is the most populous Lago Maggiore centre made up of Intra, Pallanza and other small towns. Intra is the old town centre: a walking tour through the beautiful pedestrian street, rich in shops and bars where you can have an aperitif during summer or enjoy a hot chocolate in winter, is absolutely recommended. Walking along the panoramic Lake cycling path you can reach Pallanza (about 30 minutes from Intra on foot); during the walk you can admire the futuristic lines of the new theatre “Il Maggiore” and then the famous botanic garden of Villa Taranto, open from March to October, which hosts a very rich variety of flowers and rare plants, that is why many define it as the most beautiful garden in Italy. Once passed the little hill of “Castagnola”, one of the most exclusive residential areas of the city, you arrive in the centre of Pallanza, home of the “Museo del Paesaggio”, in which you will find the main works of the impressionist woodcarver Paolo Troubetzkoy. At the end of the wonderful lakeside promenade of Pallanza you finally get to the hamlet of Suna, a lovely village rich in fine restaurants and bars, which goes up to Monterosso slops.
