Tips

Hiking

The Cugnasco-Monti di Motti road was built as a military road during the First World War. After a 12 km climb on a narrow but well-maintained road, you reach Monti di Motti, a magnificent cluster of houses on a small lake with breathtaking views of the Verzasca Valley, the Magadino Plain, Monte Tamaro and Lake Maggiore. The grotto and the lake make this mountain an ideal destination for families who want to spend a day surrounded by nature. Several interesting excursions start from here, including one to the picturesque Sassariente
