Certainly one of the most beautiful places in the capriasca valley.
This place offers a magnificent 360° view over Lugano's lake and the surrounding alpine chain.
Caval Drossa can be reached from "Gola di Lago" towards "Motto della Croce" and continuing towards the peak "Caval Drossa" at 1632 mt.
Caval Drossa (1632 mt) can also be easily reached from the top of Monte Bar (1816 mt). Not so far from the top of "Monte Bar" there is a nice modern hut (for info capannamontebar.ch).
