Cicogna is about 17 km from Verbania. It is accessible by car along the road connecting Verbania Trobaso with Verbania Fondotoce, at Santino (chief town of the Municipality of San Bernardino Verbano). Once you reach Santino, go ahead for Rovegro and then, along a narrow and winding road, you will reach Cicogna.
