Cannero Riviera is located on the shore of Lake Maggior, one of the most
beautiful Italian lakes and has enchanted the great Italian and foreign
artists who have stayed here.
Due to the warm and moist
micro-climate of this northern Italian location, unusual vegetation such
as lemons, oranges, mimosa, Bougainville and even bananas grow wild
here. This is the reason for the name "Riviera".
Every year in March there is a fair "Agrumi di Cannero" where all fruits are displayed.
The
small old village of Cannero with its narrow streets was once a fishing
village in the Middle Ages. Today it thrives in the summer mainly from
tourism.
The promenade in the shade of
evergreen magnolia takes you along the lake for its pebble beach with a
spacious lawn for sunbathing.From the shore you can enjoy a unique view
of the islands of the castles of Cannero Riviera and the town of Luino
on the opposite Lombard shore.
