Ascona

The former fishing village of Ascona lies in a spectacular sunny bay on Lake Maggiore, with its Old Town and lakeside promenade; it’s one of Switzerland’s most exclusive tourist resorts.

The old town was built around the 16th century church of San Pietro e Paolo, an elaborate collection of lanes containing every kind of shop leads to the piazza, which lies directly on the lake, the famous lakefront with its cafés and tables is a great way to take in the ambience of Ascona basking in the sunshine.

While Lake Maggiore offers a wide range of water sports, the unspoilt valleys are ideal for excursions and walks with its ideal climate and spectacular location you will experience a memorable stay.
