Locarno spreads on the northern tip of Lake Maggiore, in the Canton of Ticino. The city, situated on the delta of the River Maggia, boasts Switzerland’s mildest climate. You will be delighted by the city’s southern charm and Mediterranean climate, its many restaurants and activities on offer as well as its lakeside promenades and its subtropical vegetation. Locarno really is a city for those who enjoy the small pleasures life has to offer like strolling through the alleyways of the old town or watching the Piazza Grande bustle with life over a cup of cappuccino ! An aerial cable car designed by famous architect Mario Botta leads to Locarno’s landmark, the peak of Mt. Cardada-Cimetta (1670 m). In summer, Cardada is popular among paragliders and hikers, while skiing and tobogganing are winter favourites.
