캄포(발레마지아) 최고의 러닝 경로

You have the feeling of floating on foot over the Maggia and its floodplain landscape.

At 380 meters, the Someo Pass is the longest suspension bridge in Ticino. It crosses the very wide Maggia Riverbed and the floodplain at a height of just a few meters. Crossing with dogs is no problem, provided they are already familiar with gratings.

You can hear the goats' bells in the background, and you can find a wonderfully quiet bathing spot to relax, read, and swim, not so crowded, but easily accessible.

Interesting bridge construction. Great view of the Maggia and the mountains. Despite my fear of heights, I had no problem here.

Visually attractive bridge over the Maggia

This bridge is an experience. The view of the Maggia and the mountains is a dream. There are several places below where you can get to the river.

There is a feeling of abrupt detachment when we enter what seems to be the mysterious door to the very heart of the mountain: almost suddenly we pass from a gentle, sunny and verdant landscape to a space of shadow where rare rays of sun struggle to penetrate, grazing the walls like blades of light, we pass from the heat to the cool-humid where only mosses and lichens manage to thrive and develop. We walk easily on the flat and dry bottom, created by the deposits of the streams, large irregularly rounded cavities alternate with narrow passages and above our heads dizzying walls seem at times to almost join together leaving only narrow openings towards the sky. Some metal ladders make the climb easier.

In Maiesso (535 m) you can admire, along the course of the Toce river, the so-called 'giants' potholes': the rocky banks hit by the swirling subglacial current, have been sculpted as if they were soft clay, giving rise to semicircular, sinuous, smooth and enveloping shapes, splendid inlets where the current relaxes and the torrent widens into sparkling pools of water that invite you to take a dive and a 'vivifying' immersion. Here you can also observe the "zero unit", the oldest formation in our Alps that emerges only here in the Antigorio valley.
