Overview:

Baveno is just along the lakeshore from Stresa, and is a quieter, more often chosen as a more affordable alternative to its neighbouring Stresa. It has a pretty lakeside promenade but fairly uninteresting town. The main road along lakefront is very busy and traffic lights in centre cause long hold-ups at peak times.

Locality:

Baveno is located on W shore of lake, 2 mls from Stresa, 50 mls from Milan, 30 mls from Malpensa airport and 25 mls from Swiss border. Baveno faces the Borromean islands; views of mountains in distance and behind.

Entertainment/Facilities/Attractions/Things to do:

Entertainment in the area generally consists of varied walks behind town and boat trips, otherwise very few daytime activities available in resort and no nightlife.
