Laveno-Mombello on Lake Maggiore A remarkable municipality on the eastern shore of Lake Maggiore, Laveno-Mombello, with its kilometer-long promenade, is located on the lake's only natural harbor. In this vacation paradise, you have arrived in Lombardy. Set your sights on the place where the Torrente Boesia flows into Lake Maggiore. Laveno-Mombello may be home to few major attractions, but this small town is nevertheless particularly charming. Let your gaze wander over the central part of Lake Maggiore, to the Borromean Islands, the Pennine Alps, and the Monte Rosa massif. Breathe in the historic atmosphere. Laveno played an important role in Lake Maggiore's past. Text / Source: Lagomaggiore.de https://www.lagomaggiore.de/staedte/laveno-mombello
