A fascinating cliff, known as the Sasso Ballaro, overlooks the shores of Lago Maggiore. The rock slopes down in 268 steps. The landscape is majestic and the Lake reflects the mountains. Then appears the Monastery, that seems to be imbedded in the rocks. This is the Hermitage of Santa Caterina. The enchanting atmosphere of the Monastery, suspended in time and space, fills the soul with a perception of peace and mystical contemplation.
