Buying real estate with a lake view: the special features of Lake Maggiore

What was once a glacier in the Ice Age is now one of the most attractive vacation regions in Switzerland. Just like Lake Lugano, Lake Maggiore or Maggiore or Lake Maggiore is one of the northern Italian lakeswhich lie partly on the territories of Switzerland and Italy. The official language on Lake Maggiore is Italian, which also applies to Lake Maggiore in Ticino. Nevertheless, most of the inhabitants of the northern lake understand German, so that communication is possible even without knowledge of Italian. At its widest, the lake is ten kilometers wide and a good 64 kilometers long. Lake Maggiore is up to 372 meters deep. Lake Maggiore is mainly fed by the rivers Ticino and Maggia. At the mouths of the rivers beautiful natural landscapes and nature reserves. The rather wild river of the same name flows through the magical Maggia Valley to the north-western Maggia Delta where it flows into Lake Maggiore at Locarno. In the northeast, the Ticino flows into the lake. The estuary area is the Magadino plainwhich, as a protected floodplain area of national importance, offers many animal species a species-appropriate home and delights nature lovers.
