Luxury properties in Bée
Elevated residences among hills, woods and lake-views on Lake Maggiore
Bee is a small hillside village above Verbania, suspended between the blue of Lake Maggiore and the green of woods and meadows. At an altitude of just over 400–600 metres, the village overlooks the Borromean Gulf with wide and luminous views. Its location is strategic: only a few minutes from the services of Intra and Pallanza, yet immersed in a quiet and natural setting. The municipal area includes the hamlets of Albagnano and Pian Nava, and borders Arizzano, Vignone, Ghiffa and Premeno.
An authentic landscape of trails and hamlets
Those who choose Bee do so for the measured pace and understated beauty of its landscape: chestnut groves, dry-stone walls, small historic hamlets and country lanes that wind through meadows and terraced fields. A symbolic itinerary is the Sentiero delle Coppelle, which circles Mount Cimolo, passing through the medieval hamlet of Roncaccio, votive chapels and prehistoric cup-marked stones. An accessible path that offers direct contact with nature and spectacular views of the lake.
On the ridge facing the lake lies the Special Reserve of the Sacro Monte della SS. Trinità of Ghiffa, a Baroque complex surrounded by 200 hectares of woodland, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a place of great landscape and spiritual interest.
Bee is located about 8 km northeast of Verbania, above the Piedmont shore of Lake Maggiore. The municipality includes Albagnano and Pian Nava and borders Arizzano, Vignone, Ghiffa and Premeno. It is the ideal choice for those who seek lake views and privacy with quick access to urban services.
Milan Malpensa Airport is reachable in about 50–60 minutes, while the Verbania-Pallanza railway station offers fast connections to Milan and Domodossola. From Switzerland and Germany, Bee is accessible via both the Simplon Pass and the Gotthard axis.
