    Monte Generoso is the mountain that dominates the entire Mendrisiotto area and Lake Lugano, it can be reached with beautiful treks that start from Switzerland and Valle Intelvi, or it can also be reached with a panoramic train that leaves from Riva San Vitale, in at the top you can enjoy on the clearest days a wonderful view of the main lakes in the area and also of the skyscrapers of Milan and the Po Valley, as well as of the entire Alpine range.

      The Monte Generoso is 1,700 meters high and is located at the southern end of Lake Lugano. If you plan a leisurely hike on the mountain without ascending, you can simply take the cog railway from Capolago.
