What to eat in Stresa?
Stresa is renowned for its fresh lake fish, especially perch and pike. Don't miss out on local pastries like torta subbursca and the famous merenghi di Arona.

How to get around Stresa?
Public buses are convenient for getting around town and to surrounding islands. Taxis are also readily available but can be pricey.
Stresa vs Bellagio (Italy)?
