Knopf MapGuide: Italian Lakes Book

This opening fold-out contains a general map of the region to help you visualize the 6 large geographical areas discussed in this guide, and 4 pages of valuable information, handy tips and useful addresses.

Discover the Italian Lakes through 6 areas and 6 maps

Lago d'Orta/ Golfo Borromeo
Lago Maggiore/ Centovalli/ Val Vigezzo

For each district there is a double-page of addresses (restaurants — listed in ascending order of price — cafés, bars, markets, stores) followed by a fold-out map for the relevant area with the essential places to see (indicated on the map by a star *). These places are by no means all that the region has to offer but to us they are unmissable. The grid-referencing system (A B2) makes it easy for you to pinpoint addresses quickly on the map.

Transportation and hotels in the Italian Lake District
The last fold-out consists of a transportation map and 4 pages of practical information that include a selection of hotels.

A thematic index lists all the sites and addresses featured in this guide.
