There are many viewpoints on Monte San Salvatore, on the way down into the valley. But this is the only one where you can look directly at Lugano. It's a must-see!

Hiking

The hike to the top of San Salvatore offers breathtaking panoramic views of Lake Lugano, the surrounding mountains and even the Alps on a clear day. The trail is well marked and, although steep at times, the panoramic views from the top are well worth it, making it a fantastic hike for nature lovers looking for a memorable experience.
