Best foot forward to Sacre Monte Di Orta. On top of a hill overlooking Lago D’Orta, you’ll find a complex of 20 tiny chapels dedicated to Francis of Assisi, full of frescoes and sculptures, ancient and beautiful.
A UNESCO World Heritage site, it’s well worth hauling yourself up the cobbled streets from San Giulio to the tree lined summit to wander in the peace and quiet. The views of the lake are spectacular too.
