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.
