Gelateria La Dolce Vita is one of the best-known gelaterias in Locarno and, for many visitors, an essential part of a stay on Lago Maggiore. Located right next to Piazza Grande, it has been producing fresh, homemade gelato daily according to Italian tradition since 2002. The family gelateria is already run by the second generation and relies on high-quality ingredients, fresh fruit and classic recipes from Italy.

Particularly popular are creamy classics such as Pistacchio di Bronte, Nocciola delle Langhe or Stracciatella. Alongside these there are seasonal specialities and fruit sorbets with a high fruit content. The generous portions, the central location and the cosy atmosphere make the gelateria a popular meeting place for locals and tourists alike. After a stroll through the old town or along the lakeside promenade, a visit to La Dolce Vita is simply part of the experience for many.
