The Ghisallo hill (Ghisall in Lombard) is a road pass that connects Valassina with the upper part of the Lariano Triangle. The crossing point, at an altitude of 754 m above sea level, is part of the municipality of Magreglio. A few meters from the pass there is a small church: the sanctuary of the Madonna del Ghisallo. Its name (according to an ancient legend) derives from a certain Ghisallo who in medieval times was attacked by bandits in that place and made a vow to the Madonna to build a church in his honor if he escaped. The sanctuary of the Madonna del Ghisallo The Ghisallo climb (from the north side) is traditionally covered by the Giro di Lombardia and has also been included several times in the route of the Giro d'Italia. For this reason, the Madonna del Ghisallo is particularly venerated by cyclists, and on the initiative of the then parish priest Don Ermelindo Viganò (1906–1985), in 1949 Pope Pius XII proclaimed her the universal patroness of cyclists. Next to the sanctuary you can find the Cycling Museum and the "Monument to the cyclist", designed and created by Elio Ponti, sculptor from Ponzate, Como. Source: Wikipedia

The path passes from the beech forest to the jagged ridges of the Denti della Vecchia, a series of peaks in the Lugano Prealps of which Sasso Grande is the highest.

In addition to the wonderful terrace and the excellent local cuisine, the e-bike can be recharged at the charging station. https://www.ticino.ch/en/commons/details/E-Bike-charging-point-Capanna-Pairolo-Lugano/148679.html

The Sasso Grande in particular is a nice climb (can be climbed without equipment), but there are also some smaller rocks in the series
