Bogogno Golf Resort

Bogogno is one of the most complete stay-and-play formulas in northern Italy

The Club

Bogogno is one of the most complete stay-and-play formulas in northern Italy, with two courses, resort hospitality and a structure designed to sustain real multi-day golf stays rather than quick stopovers. Between Lake Maggiore and the core of Piedmont's golfing territory, the resort offers scale, comfort and enough variety to be especially attractive for groups, couples and international guests. The two courses allow players to alternate rhythm, difficulty and playing style, keeping the experience fresh over several days. The resort dimension is central, yet it does not cancel the sporting value: Bogogno remains a serious, well-organized address built to be lived in with continuity. It may not have the historic pedigree of some Piedmontese clubs, but that very contemporary orientation makes it highly competitive in the luxury travel market. It is a smart choice for travelers wanting a complete golf holiday with dependable standards and everything comfortably at hand.

Wine

Travaglini: Gattinara Riserva Verticale

Gattinara, Vercelli · 35 km

Travaglini's Gattinara is one of Italy's longest-lived wines: the Riserva with 5 years of ageing develops complexity that challenges Burgundy and Barolo. The winery, built by Giancarlo Travaglini with organic forms inspired by the iconically crooked bottle, hosts private verticals in the rotic granite vaults.

Insider Tip

The crooked Travaglini bottle is not a gimmick: the shape was designed to collect sediment during pouring. Ask the cellar master to show you the difference between a straight and crooked bottle with the same wine.

Art

Sacro Monte di Orta: l'Isola dei Silenzi

Orta San Giulio, Novara · 28 km

The Sacro Monte di Orta is UNESCO and is arguably the finest of the nine Piedmontese sacred mountains. Twenty chapels built from 1591 narrate the life of Saint Francis with 376 polychrome terracotta figures. Opposite, on the island of San Giulio, the Romanesque basilica from the year 1000 reflects on the waters of Lake Orta.

Insider Tip

Private ferryman Gianni Ferretti takes you to the island at 7:00 AM, before the public ferries: the Benedictine monks of San Giulio Abbey open the crypt from 390 AD only during those hours.

Secret Spot

Lago d'Orta: Kayak nell'Alba Silenziosa

Orta San Giulio, Novara · 30 km

Lake Orta is the smallest of the great pre-Alpine Italian lakes and the one with the least boat traffic. At dawn, with the kayak provided by Orta Outdoor, you circumnavigate the island of San Giulio in under 20 minutes: the dark water reflects the mountains and the convent bells mark the rhythm of the oars.

Insider Tip

Orta Outdoor organises 6:00 AM private departures. Bring coffee in a thermos: on the north bank there is a flat rock perfect for breakfast with a view of the basilica lit by the rising sun.
