On your bikes (possibility of rental on site) we will begin to travel the entire cycle-pedestrian path that frames the wonderful Varese Lake, nestled between green hills, meadows, agricultural areas and placed at the foot of the spectacular Massiccio del Campo dei Fiori which, with its peaks, is part of the Varesine Prealps.
On clear days we will admire Monte Rosa which stands out clearly, wrapped in a magical light. The shores of the lake are rich in elegant villas and pleasant villages that harmonize well with the liveliness of the landscape.
A simple tour (28KM in total), pausing in the most evocative and panoramic points that will give us evocative views of the lake, the surrounding woods and clearings.
Halfway we will reach the town of Biandronno where a small boat, with a short and romantic navigation on the blue waters of the lake, will take us to virginia Island the place where everything came to life: it is in fact the oldest pile-dwelling settlement in the Alpine Arch that has been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List "Prehistoric pile-dwelling sites in the Alps".
Once landed, lunch “overlooking the lake” with a menu prepared with local products.
One more souvenir photo, a look at the lake and then…. back on the saddle to complete the missing route, and return to the starting point through rural courtyards, beaches and parks.
Note: It is recommended that you bring your own bicycle. For those wishing to rent it, the extra charge is to be paid directly on site, upon reservation.
Comfortable clothing recommended.
