Nice route, the climb from Castel San Pietro towards Alpe di Caivano is steep, on a cobbled road with bumpy sections, difficult without an EMTB. The descent is steep and could be risky due to the potholes. From Alpe di Caivano it is better to go through Generoso to Osteria La Peonia and then go down to Mendrisio.

stone bridge built between 1820 and 1822, called "ul punt da canaa", because it was located near the water intake for the mill

Punt from Canaa The deep furrow of the Breggia has always represented a difficult obstacle to crossing the valley. Of the various ways used to pass from one bank to the other, many traces remain within the Park: the oldest is perhaps the Murnée ford. The first indications of the extraordinary bridge built between two rock spurs 35 m above the river bed at the narrowest point of the Gorges date back to 1426: the Farügin bridge (or St. Peter's Bridge. The circular road was built around 1820 between Castel San Pietro and Morbio Superiore which crosses the Breggia with a stone bridge (Punt da Canaa) the large iron bridge (Punt da Castel) was built in 1997, replaced by the current concrete bridge.

Fantastic landscape, very well maintained paths 💯. What can I say, try 👍🥾🚶

Alpe Caviano is located at an altitude of 970 metres, here you have a wonderful view of all the most important massifs of the Alps as well as of the entire Mendrisiotto area and the surrounding mountains.

Wonderful natural park created by the flowing waters of the Breggia river.
