Here you will find innumerable paths and trails, that cross fields and woodlands to reach the peaks of San Giorgio, Poncione d\u2019Arzo, Monte Generoso, the apex of Serpiano and the Alpe di Brusino with its thousand-year-old chestnut trees.<\/p>\n<p>Others choose to descend towards Lake Lugano or stroll across the little mountain hamlets. These walks, clearly marked by yellow markings, are so numerous that whenever you feel like a walk you\u2019ll have dozens of options at your fingertips.<\/p>\n<p>With short car-rides, you will also be able to reach nearby valleys including Val di Muggio and Val Verzasca, now renowned for being called \u2018Milan\u2019s Maldives\u2019 in a viral video, each with its own fantastic views. Near Bellinzona, in Curzut, you will find a Tibetan bridge, perfect for those that long for a little adrenaline.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Monte San Giorgio<\/strong>: since it became a Unesco World Heritage Site in 2003, this mountain is most commonly visited due to the variety of perfectly conserved fossils that it is home to, as well as the countless trails that its 20 square kilometres of untouched natural beauty offer to both walkers and cyclists. There are over 20 different trails that set off from Meride, with breathtaking views over the lake or under silent woodlands or across the clearings full of deer and foxes. From there, you\u2019ll be able to walk all the way down to the shores of Lake Lugano for a restorative swim and make your way back up to the top using a little red cable car, the oldest in Switzerland.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li>Walks range from one hour to a whole day<\/li>\n<li>Start point is the Locanda &#8211; Difficulty: easy-medium (depends on choice of trails)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.schweizmobil.ch\/it\/svizzera-a-piedi\/percorsi\/route-0636.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.schweizmobil.ch\/it\/svizzera-a-piedi\/percorsi\/route-0636.html<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Cave di Arzo<\/strong>: a place where for centuries people have been mining the earth.

From Serpiano, the cablecar will take you down to the lake by Brusino, where you\u2019ll be able to take a ferry to Lugano or any of the other little fishing villages on the coast, with their twisting side streets and local shops and restaurants overlooking the water. It is also very easy to reach the \u2018Lido\u2019s in Melano, Maroggia, Riva San Vitale and Lugano where you will be able to enjoy the sunshine, to refresh yourself with a nice swim, or to try out various water sports.<\/p>\n<p>For our river-loving guests, we recommend the many streams that surround the Locanda, always full of surprises with their crystalline cool waters that offer a reprieve from the summer heat. Just a short ways from the Locanda are a couple of gorgeous secluded pools in which to refresh yourselves and watch the setting sun, maybe after a day of walks or visits. Nearby is also the \u2018Parco della Breggia\u2019, a park that rises up around the valley carved by the river that gives the park its name, with its wide and striking pools.<\/p>\n<p>For those with a passion for fishing, it is also possible to organise fishing day trips with guides that can lead you to spaces in which to experience a deep rapport with your surrounding nature. You will even have the option to bring your catch back to the Locanda and include it in your evening meal if you choose not to return it to its home.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Boat Trips on Lake Lugano<\/strong>: the lake is a perfect place for an evocative boat trip that stops at little fishing villages or just to admire the majesty of the mountains that surround the lakes.
