Neve Azzurra-Verbano Cusio Ossola: enjoy skiing with views over the lakes
Between Lake Maggiore, Lake Orta, Lake Mergozzo and the Ossola Valleys, the Neveazzurra area comprises 16 sites and nine valleys with outstanding views and countless opportunities for sport and fun. Here, for example, one can enjoy incomparable views over the lakes while skiing down the runs of the Mottarone and Pian di Sole.
One can explore the area below the Monte Rosa massif on skis or snowshoes and reach Macugnaga with its two ski areas, Belvedere and Monte Moro.
Cross-country skiing, Nordic skiing, snowshoeing and snowmobiling are popular activities. Formazza and Alpe Devero are also located in the Ossola area's snow-covered interior. Domobianca, just ten kilometres from Domodossola, combines cross-country skiing, Nordic skiing and snowboarding. Lastly, San Domenico di Varzo, nestled deep in the Lepontine Alps, features Nordic skiing, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and lengthy off-piste excursions at altitudes between 1,400 and 2,550 metres.
