Great canoeing returns to Orta San Giulio the first weekend in October with the Orta Lake Challenge on 2nd, 3rd and 5th October 2020.

The event consists of two days of spectacular and increasingly high level races over the traditional 6 km route, which starts at the area in Orta San Giulio known as Bagnera, proceeds to Pettenasco and then circumnavigates the Island of San Giulio before ending back at Bagnera.
