Churches with their own architectural history

The Chiesa di San Sebastiano was built at the beginning of the 17th century. In the 18th century, it was extended and remodelled. The churchyard offers a special perspective: from there, you can enjoy a view of Lake Maggiore. This means that the site combines architectural development with a tangible impression of the landscape.

The Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta also bears witness to several construction phases. Its free-standing bell tower is the only surviving reminder of the former Romanesque building. Corinthian capitals and Baroque decorations have been preserved inside. Those interested in forms, details and historical changes will find a different approach to sacred architecture here than at San Sebastiano.

The Chiesa della Madonna di Loreto, also known as “la Mora”, was built around the middle of the 18th century around a votive chapel.

Sentiero 131 between viewpoints and trail connections

For active days on holiday, Sentiero 131 is the main attraction. The trail includes a viewpoint overlooking the lake and the mountains on the Piedmont shore. It leads to Musignano, where it crosses trail 3V Biegno–Maccagno. Sentiero 131 also includes a footbridge over the channel of the hydroelectric power station's penstock at Lago Delio. The different trail sections therefore provide several specific points of reference for your planning: a viewpoint, a connection to another trail and an unusual structural detail.
