The Campo dei Fiori Circuit

From the magnificent Villa Toeplitz, the route continues to Poggio di Velate, which is part of the Sentiero 310 trail, a circuit of Mount Campo Dei Fiori. Be ready to take many uphill and downhill trails before getting to Pian delle Noci, a shelter nestled among centuries-old beech trees. A downhill trail to Orino offers a beautiful view over Lake Maggiore and the Borromean Islands up to the Rocca, a spectacular fortress named after the village, before continuing on a paved road to Brinzio, a typical village home to a museum of rural life. On the way back, the route takes in dirt roads and sometimes rocky trails, passing old farmsteads and mills in La Rasa.
