Lake Orta is a picturesque lake located in the Piedmont region of northern Italy. Known for its serene beauty and tranquil waters, it is often considered one of Italy's most enchanting lakes. The lake is relatively small compared to its more famous neighbors, such as Lake Como and Lake Maggiore, but it offers a peaceful retreat away from the more crowded tourist destinations. At the heart of Lake Orta lies the charming Isola San Giulio, which is home to a historic basilica and a monastery.
