Unbenanntes Erlebnis
The Valle di Muggio is a typical pre-Alpine valley in Ticino. Located in the southernmost tip of Switzerland, the Mendrisiotto, it stretches from the rugged cliffs of Monte Generoso to the gentle hills near Chiasso. Agriculture still shapes the valley today, with goat and cattle farming as well as chestnut groves in the upper areas, while further down, vineyards dominate the landscape, evoking the charm of Tuscany. Discover the impressive nature, culture, and traditions of the Valle di Muggio, accompanied by the rushing waters of the Breggia as it flows through this pristine valley. Selected hotels ensure a relaxing stay, and luggage transport allows you to explore with just a light daypack.
Mendrisiotto
What to expect
- From the starting point at the summit of Monte Generoso, the view sweeps across the Mendrisiotto and Ticino regions, reaching the highest 4,000-meter peaks of the Monte Rosa massif and far into the Po Valley in Italy.
- A warm welcome to the Albergo Diffuso in Scudellate, the "scattered" hotel! A unique project that supports the remote mountain village in generating new value.
- Discover the old mill in Bruzella, where the typical "Rosso del Ticino," the red corn from Ticino, is still ground today.
- Hike along smuggler trails near the border with Italy and listen to the stories of an old "contrabbandiere."
- Bike and Wine: round off your days with a ride through the vineyards, combined with a visit to the cantina, where local winemakers produce one of the best Merlots.
