    Verbania: D4 … Intra

    3. august 2025, Italien ⋅ ⛅ 82 °F

    Intra is one of several small districts of Verbania … situated on the Borromean Gulf of Lago Maggiore. Leaving the beautiful grounds at Villa Taranto, we headed there next.

    Finding a parking spot near the ferry landing, we went off to find some food for our late lunch. It was already siesta time, which meant that our choices were limited. Nonetheless, we had a very tasty meal at Bar Sempione … a thin crust pizza with prosciutto and pistachio pesto … grilled octopus with roasted potatoes … all to share.

    Skipping dessert, we wandered the back streets of Intra in search of gelato, peeking into the Basilica of Saint Victor along the way. Our steps took us to a hidden piazzetta where we found a popular gelateria … the queue flowing out onto the street. It was worth the wait to take our turn at the counter.

    With the late afternoon temperature rising along with the humidity, we decided to call it a day and returned to the apartment to rest up. Tomorrow is our last day in Verbania and we have plans to check out a different section of the Lago Maggiore shoreline.    Læs mere
