Biking

The local mountain of Locarno offers a lot for hiking and walking enthusiasts. Even mountain bike lovers will get their money’s worth. The unique panorama and the beautiful trails through birch forests, which are complemented by the racy downhill to Contra, make the route a paradise for mountain bikers. For those less daring and even families that come to Ticino, the Maggiadelta and the sea passages feature easy cycle paths for young and old.
