Gannariente Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

The landslide of Gannariente / Ganarint was the worst in historical time for the Bavonatal, a huge block debris field blocks the entire valley floor with some towering boulders. In 1595, the small church was built in memory - after all, the largest in the valley. Every year on the first Sunday of May, a procession of Cavergno takes place from here.

Cevio village center and historic square

Highlight • Historical Site

Today you can admire the wealth of well-preserved historical evidence in the village, including the village square surrounded by houses from the 19th century. The village consists of several hamlets, spread over almost 3 km, some of which are worth seeing.
Particularly interesting are the 19th century buildings lined up in the beautiful village square and the large mansions of the old village center of Cevio. The Ethnographic Museum of the Maggia Valley has been set up in two of these houses, which formerly belonged to the Franzoni family.

Erdrutsch von Fontana

Highlight • Historical Site

Absolutely heartbreaking to see the damage that had torn through the village here. I found an article that covers the event leading up to this ruin: theguardian.com/world/2025/aug/05/forest-gone-storm-that-moved-a-mountain-climate-crisis-environment
