Pino sulla sponda del lago Maggiore is situated on the coastal road between Maccagno and Zenna, the border Italy-Switzerland; it rises on a small promontory that infiltrates itself in the lake and it offers an ample and pleasant panorama of the Piedmont, Lombardy and Swiss coast. It is an ancient town that develops itself in part on the coast and in part on the hill, to visit San Quirico's church with lake view and the medioeval tower. Two curiosities: it is the last town of the Lombardy coast before the border Italy-Switzerland and the name of the town, composed by 30 letters, it is the longest in Italy.
