Beautiful location, very normal prices, great for a refreshment between the Rasa Trail (komoot.com/de-de/highlight/133646) and the Rasa-Bordei Trail (komoot.com/de-de/highlight/2680604)
Unfortunately, the perfectionism of German-Swiss has somewhat overwhelmed the charm of Ticino, which is a shame...

October 4, 2022,Ronco s. Ascona – Aussicht auf Lago Maggiore Runde von Piodina

Catastrophic bike tour, it would be a nice hike.. it only has narrow paths through inhabited houses and stairs without end. Great as a hike, a flop as a bike tour!
