Ascona

Ascona is known for its Mediterranean atmosphere, artistic heritage, and beautiful location on Lake Maggiore. It's a popular destination for art lovers, those seeking relaxation, and anyone wanting to experience the beauty of the Swiss-Italian border region.

Visitors can enjoy a variety of activities, including exploring art galleries, strolling along the lakeside promenade, swimming in Lake Maggiore, hiking in the surrounding mountains, and enjoying the local cuisine at the many restaurants and cafes.

The best time to visit Ascona is during the spring and summer months (May to September) when the weather is warm and sunny, perfect for outdoor activities and enjoying the lake. However, the shoulder seasons (April and October) can also be pleasant with fewer crowds.
