Schedule
Hiking in southern Ticino is something special. You can already feel the “south”, the mountains are not as rocky as further north, and you look into the Po plain and move through chestnut forests. Our hike soon takes us to the mountain ridge that marks the border between Switzerland and Italy and stretches for a good 60km to Pizzo Tambo near the Splügen Pass. Once on top of the ridge, we enjoy the views in the distance and hike along the border until we reach our hut, where the food is excellent.
On the second day, our main goal is Monte Boglia, high above Lugano, whose views are simply unique. We almost regret that we have to go down again, but if we have our bathing suits with us, we can reward ourselves in Lugano with a short swim in the lake.
