About this Lake Maggiore map poster
Lake Maggiore stretches for a long way north to south, starting in the Swiss canton of Ticino and ending in the Italian lowlands. On a map it reads as a slender, slightly curving ribbon, with the shoreline broken by small bays and river deltas along its length.
Locarno sits at the northern tip, where the Maggia river has built a broad delta out into the water. Further south, the shores are lined with towns such as Stresa, Verbania and Luino, their old centres and lakeside promenades running along narrow strips of flat land beneath wooded slopes.
The most recognisable detail is the Borromean Gulf on the western shore, where the small Borromean Islands sit in the water off Stresa. A Lake Maggiore map poster shows these as tiny, precise shapes against the open lake, with the Ticino river flowing in at the north and out again at the south.

Maggia delta at Locarno
At the northern end a river delta pushes a rounded fan of land into the lake, with Locarno and Ascona set on either side of it.
Two-country shoreline
The northern section belongs to Switzerland and the rest to Italy, so the map covers two road networks joined by the same long body of water.

Why Lake Maggiore
A map that means something
Maggiore attracts people who like a slower pace: gardens on the islands, a ferry between Swiss and Italian towns, an evening on the promenade at Stresa. A map lets you keep the whole length of the lake in view, from mountain end to plain.
Name it after the town you return to, add a year in the subtitle and adjust the coordinates line. Pick one of five styles, Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand, and choose between a $9 set of files or a framed print.
