Everyone knows New Zealanders are pretty chilled, so consider extending your stay and check out the Abbey Traona, Traona War Memorial and Parravicini Palace, in Traona, 14 kilometres to the southwest of Val Masino. Some of our recommended Traona hotel options are the La Fiorida and B&B Le Cantine del Vecchio Borgo. Or, you could stay in Sondrio, 18 kilometres to the southeast of Val Masino, where you can pick from the Europa and Vittoria. Should you choose to stay in Sondrio, set aside a little time to check out the Masegra Castle Museum, Valtellinese Museum of History and Art and Grumello Castle.

Just because you're travelling, doesn't mean you can't enjoy your obsession for sport. San Siro Stadium can be found 95 kilometres to the southwest of Val Masino. The Hotel Sunflower and the Hotel Valganna are good options if you want to get amongst it.

If you're travelling into or out of Agno Airport and choose to stay nearby, try the Hotel Gabbani or the Villa Camelia.
