ルガーノのおすすめツーリングルート

サンタ・マリア・デッリ・アンジェリは、リベラの上にあるフォッパ高地の印象的な礼拝堂です。有名な建築家マリオ・ボッタによって設計され、現代建築と精神的な静けさを組み合わせています。特徴的な遊歩道が壮大に建造物へと続き、ティチーノの山々の景色が開けます。内部では、アーティスト、エンツォ・クッキの色彩豊かな作品が印象的です。この礼拝堂は、ハイカーや文化愛好家にとって人気の目的地となっています。自然、芸術、瞑想をユニークな方法で結びつけ、ティチーノの建築的ハイライトの一つです。

This church has been entrusted to the local community not by one of the (almost countless) saints, but by "Santa Croce" (the Holy Cross). Perhaps a brief stop here is the perfect opportunity for hikers and walkers to offer a short meditation and a prayer to God. I would therefore like to invite you to prayerfully contemplate God's infinite love for us, revealed in Christ nailed to the wood of the cross. Perhaps a saying by the Spanish founder of the religious order, Ignatius of Loyola (1491-1556), might be helpful: "It is precisely where human hopes fall lowest that trust in God rises highest. For where all human help gives way, there divine help takes its place."

Beautiful cycle path directly along the lake.

This church in Arosio was dedicated to the Archangel Michael. The name (from the Hebrew language) means "Who is like God?" He is often depicted - in paintings or as a statue - with a flaming sword, occasionally with a lance. Michael is - together with Raphael and Gabriel, and occasionally Uriel is also included - one of the three or four archangels who (according to human belief) occupy the highest rank in the heavenly hierarchy of angelic beings. Their common feast day in the calendar of saints is September 29th.

you can get there without a MTB

Beautiful view

The hut is located on the path between Alpe Foppa and the summit of Monte Tamaro. Excellent view of the surrounding mountains

A detour here is definitely worth it. The very last part is up a flight of stairs on foot. A little further down is the beautiful cemetery.
