LAGHI DI VARESE, DI COMABBIO E DI MONATE
To the east of Lago Maggiore,
near Varese, three little lakes occupy a fragment of Lombardy with delicate wooded elevations
and green relaxing panoramas. There are the Varese's, Comabbio's and Monate's Lakes. The greatest is the
Lago di Varese, with its interesting Isolino Virginia. Very important is the Pre-historical Museum
, with finds of the area
between 1000 B.C. and the Roman period. By the island also a traditional
restaurant. You can practice in the free time
the sail, the fishing and rowing. The little Lago di Monate is integrating part of the
catchment-basin of Verbano (Maggiore Lake). On the north-east shore, is situated the locality of Cadrezzate, an agricultural village,
with an important wooden altar of the 16th century in the parochial
church (see also Travedona-Monate). Going on to the south, find you the Lago di
Comabbio, once united with the Varese's lake. In the village of Comabbio you can visit
the parochial church of St. Giacomo. |
