Forcora d'Arasio is at the crossroads of numerous paths that pass from Italy to Switzerland. We are in fact a few steps from the border and the view of Lake Maggiore is stupendous.

The Capanna San Lucio is a refuge that can be reached starting from Val Cavargna or from Valcolla, the opposite Swiss valley.

In Passo San Lucio, on the border between Italy and Switzerland, there is a church and a refuge open all year round. Here you have a wonderful view of the Val Colla and Lake Lugano.

We drove by car to the “Rivera” valley station and then took the train up to “Alpe Foppa”. Of course, the first thing to admire is the church of Santa Maria Degli Angeli. -- Quote from Google Earth Designed by world-renowned architect Mario Botta, the Church of Santa Maria degli Angeli is a masterpiece of contemporary architecture with paintings by Enzo Cucchi. A visit to the church is almost a "must", the mighty stone fortress on the mountain spur is more than a meditation room and offers the opportunity to read the surrounding landscape in a completely new way. The church is dedicated to Santa Maria degli Angeli. The building was built between 1992 and 1994 and follows a novel design approach for a place of worship. It is made of porphyry and stands on the edge of a slope from which an exceptional panoramic view opens up. The artistic design by Enzo Cucchi extends to the two main rooms: the ceiling of the transition, which is decorated with an elongated cypress, and the heart of the church. The intense blue apse takes up the theme of the offered hands, complemented by a series of twenty-two panels with Marian motifs above the windows. -- end quote The whole tour is a superlative and impresses with its all-round visibility. So plan for nice weather. In the high season, however, a lot of hiking traffic must be expected. So choose the right time. On Monte Lema you have to expect a crowded restaurant and not very motivated service. Therefore, it is not certain that you will be able to quench your thirst before you have to take the train down to the valley. Because there too you have to wait in line. Once you've arrived safely down in Miglieglia, it's possible that the queue for a bus back to "Rivera" will continue. We therefore recommend planning the tour well, finding out about the train and bus travel times and planning enough reserve time so that a missed train, bus or train connection does not spoil the beautiful day.
