So while one part of the family plunges into the zipline adventure, the other part can relax in the countryside and enjoy nature. And of course watch your loved ones take off!

You can ride the zipline alone or in pairs. You fly in “Falcon Style”—lying like a bird with your head forward at maximum speed—or in “Freestyle”: attached at the belly with the option to move and turn during the flight.

Getting there from Cannobio
Getting to the Lago Maggiore Zipline from Lakeview Cannobio is quite easy: follow the lakeside road towards Verbania, then in Cannero Riviera turn right towards Trarego. From there, follow the “Zipline” signs to Aurano. On the way you’ll pass the Wonderwood high ropes course in Trarego—both are easy to combine in one day.
More thrills? Then try the James Bond Goldeneye bungee jump in the Verzasca Valley.
After the flight, you’ll be back at the lake in a good 45 minutes. Here in Cannobio, you can stay in a mobile home by the lake, a holiday apartment in Cannobio, or on a motorhome pitch on Lake Maggiore.
