Lakeside Cycle Path Locarno–Tenero

Highlight • Cycleway

Beautiful bike path overlooking the lake, very popular but spacious and with excellent asphalt conditions. It's the perfect connection between Locarno and Tenero and vice versa.

Wooden Bridge Over the Rialo, Progero

Highlight • Bridge

A fantastic bike path between Tenero and Bellinzona. If you don't feel like a mountain stage in between, you've come to the right place.

On the finest asphalt you roll here in the cooling shade of a grove from Tenor to Bellinzona. A pleasure!

View of the river near Bellinzona

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great way from the San Bernardino Pass coming just before Bellinzona. From the climate, you feel like you are in Italy, but the snow-capped mountains in the background tell you that you are (still) in Switzerland. Typical Ticino.

September 3, 2023,vom Bodensee zum Lago Maggiore / Etappe 6 / Biasca nach Locarno

The 6th and final stage of our tour from Lake Constance to Lake Maggiore takes us from Biasca through the flat Magadino plain with its small villages into the Ticino delta.

There is a lot to discover away from the main cycle path, for example

Thursday, June 19, 2025

7th and final leg to the halfway point of Ascona! We undocked in Motto at 9:15 a.m. and continued down into the valley to Biasca. It already felt like 25°C at the start, and it wasn't getting any cooler. We'd barely taken off when we made a quick stop at the Seravalle hilltop castle (de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serravalle_(Burg)).
