Paths and itineraries near Villoresi Est

Villoresi Est lies on the Autostrada dei laghi. More than 30 million vehicles take this route every year, making it one of the most traveled motorways in Italy.

The new Autogrill project is located on one of the main Italian thoroughfares at the heart of a charming landscape brimming with natural and artistic beauty.

Autostrada dei laghi and Villoresi Ovest

On the other side side of the roadway, you'll find one of the most iconic facilities from the Group's early years, Villoresi Ovest, which was designed by Pavesi and Bianchetti and opened its doors in 1958.

In 1960, LIFE magazine ran a feature proclaiming it a symbol of the economic boom and the fulfillment of dreams of modernity in post-war Italy.

More than sixty years later, Autogrill has again imbued the Autostrada dei Laghi with its spirit of innovation. The avant-garde, futuristic architecture of Villoresi Est represents a new chapter in this storied history.

Lainate,
Ninfeo of Villa Litta

Lainate is nestled between Parco delle Groane and the remains of the ancient Guasti Forest, which at one time stretched all the way to Varese. The municipality, once framed by the Lura and Bozzente streams, which flowed from Comasco and Varesotto, is now crossed by the Villoresi Canal.

The grandiose Villa Borromeo Visconti Litta complex is one of the most splendid sites in Lainate. The Villa, which dates back to the sixteenth century, is one of the most exquisite examples of Renaissance culture in Lombardy.
