The park is a must! A huge facility where you can spend hours.

Hiking

There is a very special atmosphere in the Scherrerpark in Morcote on Lake Lugano. Nestled in lush subtropical vegetation reminiscent of exotic countries, we find architecture and works of art inspired by distant cultures, such as a Siamese tea house, an Egyptian temple and Greek sculptures. We owe this fascinating garden to Hermann Arthur Scherrer, who wanted to realize his dream from the 1930s to create a magical place to remember his travels. Between palm trees, eucalyptus and lemons, cedars and oleanders, visitors can admire a variety of flowering and fragrant plants.

Hiking

Always worth a detour. I can particularly recommend the Grotto del Parco Scherrer. Small but nice menu and so far always well eaten.
