If your traveling in large numbers, please consider that we have one more luxury apartment "Novellina" in the same house, hosting up to 4.
CAR
Though I support public transport as a priority in environmental defense, your car is definitely the best option to get to Trisobbio.
From wherever you're driving, target motorway A26 "Genova-Gravellona Toce" (toll required) and your exit is OVADA.
Note: I can give you full route details from specific area/country. Just contact me before planning your route.
