 Cannero
|
Cannero Riviera is a small village situated on the Piedmont shore of the lake, in a privileged place for exposure to the sun and the natural creek which protect it from cold winds.
The town offers a beautiful, wide beach and the opportunity to practice many sports, the name Cannero is always connected to the islands that rise from the waters opposite the village, called Castelli (castles) di Cannero.
These are three rocky islets, two of which are the ruins of ancient fortifications, built between the eleventh century and twelfth century and razed in 1414 by the Duke of Milan, which was then rebuilt a castle and then abandoned.
The castle became a refuge for smugglers, was also used by fishermen as a port, and today the castles are in ruins, can take a nice boat trip.
