This is one of my favorite tours, considering that I'm the only Guide living in Orta! I willingly chose this place to live almost 20 years ago, leaving the big city , and till now. . . no regrets! The village of Orta lies at the foot of a small verdant promontory stretching into the blue waters of the lake, in the middle of which there's the romantic Island S. Giulio. On top of the peninsula sits the "Sacro Monte of Orta" (UNESCO site). In a few hours you'll never, never, get bored! Every single moment will convey beautiful feelings and amazing views. At the Sacro Monte even the atheist philosopher Nietzsche literally lost "the sense of time", seduced by its secret charm. . .
• We'll visit the Sacro Monte (UNESCO Heritage Site) walking uphill from our meeting point. The walk lasts 25 minutes: a romantic and scenic old cobbled footpath (optional: use the tourist train that takes only 5 minutes). We'll enjoy fantastic views of the lake and its hills whilst visiting some of the most impressive chapels erected mainly during the 17th century and embellished with stunning fresco-paintings and multicolored terracotta sculptures. • We'll then reach the center of Orta on foot (20 mins downhill) : we'll be strolling along its picturesque cobbled streets, stopping at a Café for a good Espresso! The village is absolutely charming, with its many quaint ancient houses and its numerous cafés and lovely tiny shops. • We'll then take a taxi boat to the picturesque Island San Giulio (5 min. ), the most romantic and mysterious Island of the Italian Lakes! The tour on the Island will take around 45 minutes.
