The Ciclovia del Toce

The Ciclovia del Toce is a cycling path that winds along the Toce River. The cycle path is about 50 kilometers long and allows you to travel from Domodossola to the area of Lake Mergozzo and Lake Maggiore. It is an easy itinerary, suitable for both experienced cyclists and beginners, including children. It enables you to ride immersed in nature, passing through woods and clearings. A section of the cycle path is known as 'cycling through the woods.'
Following the river, the cycle path offers beautiful views of the watercourse: it's nice to cool off on very hot days.

The riverbanks are rich in typical vegetation of the area, and there are also sections where flowers typical of the Lake Maggiore region are cultivated.

Vogogna and Its Castle

Vogogna is one of the most beautiful villages in Italy with a medieval history waiting to be discovered. The town is still surrounded by ancient fortifications. The village was once located on the old Simplon road, which historically connected the Domodossola area with Brig in Switzerland. The symbol of the village and Val d'Ossola is the Visconti Castle. The castle is located to the north of the village and is built against a rocky spur. What can be seen today was part of a larger defensive system that also served as a lookout point over Val d'Ossola.
