Giornico's geographical location, at the foot of the Biaschina Gorge and at the entrance to the alluvial plain of the Ticino Valley, has for centuries made it a key hub for traffic along the Gotthard Road. Before you, below, are the two arched or humpback bridges that provide access to the island on the Ticino River. On the right side of the valley, the Parish Church of San Michele, the Church of San Nicola (or San Nicolao) and, on the hill, the Church of Santa Maria del Castello.

really a nice place to visit

Scenic pass that is opened all year round (closes at 6pm in winter). There is hardly any traffic which makes cycling very nice and plenty of opportunities to take pictures. We crossed the pass in early May when there was still plenty of snow up there. The change in scenery where it was all green at Disentis and slowly turning white as we climbed higher... and very quickly turned to green as we rolled down on the south side to Biasca was breathtaking.

How wonderful! Lake Maggiore with the Brissago Islands is an enchanting place. After a nice bike ride to the Sacro Monte, stop to enjoy the view of the islands and the crystal clear waters of the lake. The climb starts from via Gerusalemme (in front of the town hall), which leads to the baroque chapel of the Annunciata. You can reach the sanctuary by following the Via Crucis (chapels with works by Fra' Roberto Pasotti, 1999-2000) or by following the "mill path" in the valley (on foot). The two roads join towards the IX chapel, called "of the Jews", near the sanctuary. The building, comprising the church of the Addolorata and the house in a single complex (it was once the rector's palace) is in Baroque style.
