Recetto combines water sports, natural surroundings and established townscapes to create a destination offering a range of experiences. The Parco Nautico del Sesia is the main attraction; at the same time, traces of local history lead from the town center to the hamlet of Cascinale. This allows you to plan your stay around active days by the water, cultural discoveries or a mixture of both, depending on what you want to focus on.

Water sports in natural surroundings

The Parco Nautico del Sesia in Recetto has three lakes specifically built for water sports. The water-skiing disciplines of slalom, figures and jumping are practiced there. The facility is set in impressive natural surroundings, creating a clear focus for anyone who wants to combine activity and landscape. When choosing a holiday apartment in Recetto, this focus can be just as important as an interest in the historic sites within the municipality.

Town center and Cassinale del Bosco

In the town center of Recetto, the Parrocchia di San Domenico stands near the ancient Ricetto. Cassinale del Bosco offers a different local point of interest: the settlement is located in the hamlet of Cascinale in Recetto, halfway between Recetto and San Nazzaro. Those who want to discover different townscapes will therefore find both a central area and a smaller settlement within the municipality.

Historical traces in Cascinale

The historic center of Cassinale del Bosco was divided into two settlement areas: the Castrum and the Villa. The castle had a shared courtyard with storage rooms and cellars for storing agricultural produce. The former parish church of Cassinale is dedicated to Madonna della Neve. Together, these individual architectural and local features tell of a settlement structure in which the castle, shared spaces and religious buildings served different functions.

Chapel and destinations in the surrounding area

The Cappella della Madonna delle Nevi was probably built in the 15th century and is located at the entrance to the hamlet of Cascinale. The Castello degli Avogadro, Castello di Buronzo, Castello Visconteo Sforzesco and Palazzo Bellini are also located in the area around Recetto. The Parco Naturale delle Lame del Sesia is nearby. The Giardini Don Secondo Pollo and the Giardini Consiglio d'europa are also in the surrounding area; the Giardini Don Giovanni Brevi are located in the wider regional area around Recetto.
