A walk along Lake Lugano, Switzerland

SEE MY TRAVEL SITES :



You are going to have a bit of a problem finding somewhere to park your motorhome in Lugano, you may have to leave it outside the town and get the bus in or alternatively find a paid parking spot in the town which is long enough to accommodate your vehicle Lugano is not motorhome friendly, many car parks expressly forbid motorhome parking. Assuming that you get round this problem then Lugano, the largest Italian speaking town in Switzerland, will give you some wonderful lake and mountain views.

Just over 70,000 people live in Lugano and with house prices similar to those in London, one can imagine what type of people they must be. Inhabited since ancient times, the city really took off in the mid nineteenth century as a comfortable lake side retreat. From around 1960 it established itself as the third banking city of Switzerland helped largely through the flood of Italian money leaving that country. In 1956 it was host to the first Eurovision Song Contest. Today more than ninety percent of the working population is employed in the services sector.

Lugano has a humid subtropical climate with relatively mild winters, warm summers and plenty of rain no matter what the season. It has an average of 98.1 days of rain or snow per year and on average receives 1,559 mm of precipitation. The wettest month is May during which Lugano receives an average of 196 mm of rain, while the driest month of the year is February with an average of 52 mm of precipitation.

The centre is relatively flat but if you are planning on going much further afield, including into the suburbs of the city, you are going to need to be quite fit. Steps in many places provide the short cut for those that don't want to follow the winding roads.

Both Lake Lugano and the surrounding mountains provide a wide variety of outdoor activities. The area surrounding Lugano is home to over 300 kilometres of mountain biking trails, the largest net of trails in Switzerland.

Lake Lugano measures 48.7 square kilometres, 63% of which is in Switzerland and 37% in Italy. It has an average width of roughly 1 kilometre and is nearly 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) at its widest. The maximum depth of the lake is 279 meters. The water is generally warm with average water temperatures in the summer ranging from 19.5 °C to 24.0 °C. There is a very pleasant walk along the lake front called the Olive Route which offers explanations of olive cultivation every few hundred metres and has magnificent views (see film and photos). As one gets to Gandia, looking east in the morning one is greeted with an almost dream like appearance of the mountains as they fall down to the lake.

Several companies, including the Società Navigazione del Lago di Lugano (SNL), provide tourist boat services on the lake. A popular excursion is by SNL boat to the picturesque lakeside village of Gandria. Additionally there are numerous shipyards, water taxis and boat rental sites along the lake, as well as hotels and restaurants that offer moorings. Bathing in the lake is allowed at any of the 50 or so bathing establishments located along the Swiss shores.

In addition to the lake, Lugano is surrounded by mountains, which provide a number of opportunities for sports or sightseeing. Two mountains, both providing excellent views over the city and lake, bracket each end of the city's waterfront. Monte Brè (933 metres), to the north, is reputedly Switzerland's sunniest spot and is also home to the old village of Brè. Monte San Salvatore (912 metres), to the south, has an old church and museum atop its summit. Both mountains are accessible by funicular railways, which are themselves easily accessible by frequent city bus or by car.

Slightly further afield is Monte Generoso (1,704 metres), with a view that encompasses the lakes of Lugano, Como and Maggiore, as well as the Alps from the Matterhorn to the Bernina Range, the Lombardy Plains, and, on a clear day, the city of Milan. The summit can be reached by taking either an SNL boat, or a railway train, to Capolago, and changing there onto a rack railway train of the Monte Generoso Railway.

Lugano, Switzerland - Parco Civico HD (2015)

Lugano is a city in southern Switzerland, in the Italian-speaking canton of Ticino, which borders Italy. The population of the city proper was 62,792 as of December 2013, and the population of the urban agglomeration was over 145,000. It is the 9th largest city of Switzerland by population, the largest city in Ticino, and the largest city with an Italian speaking majority outside of Italy.

The city lies on Lake Lugano, surrounded by the mountains of the Lugano Prealps. Its warm summers and the fact that in recent years it has attracted an ever growing number of celebrities, entertainers, and successful athletes have given it the nickname of the Monte Carlo of Switzerland.

A Day in Gandria, Switzerland

Gandria, a formerly isolated fishing village, is on the shores of Lake Lugano and at the foot of Monte Bré. It is in the Italian-speaking Ticino region of Switzerland.

A boat travels there from Lugano, and there is a tree-lined pathway called the Olive Tree Trail that connects Lugano and Gandria.

GANDRIA - Lugano Ticino (Switzerland Travel)

GANDRIA, Lugano, Cantone Ticino (Switzerland Travel).

This fishermen village is quite unique, perched at the bottom of Mount Brè, and it’s rightly famous for its wonderful and romantic atmosphere.

Gandria is a romantic locality nestled on the shores of Lake Ceresio that may be reached either by land or by lake.

Many tourists and locals enjoy the boat trip from Lugano and the walk back to Castagnola along the lake shore.

The town’s centre that is closed to traffic is an oasis of peace with its picturesque tiny streets and stairs that offer glimpses of great views and gorgeous landscapes.

At the centre of the town there is the 16th century church of San Vigilio with its outstanding baroque interior and the high late-medieval belfry.

Gandria - Lugano VLOG // Гандрия - Лугано

Gandria - Lugano VLOG

Гандрия (итал. Gandria) — ныне одно из предместий швейцарского города Лугано в кантоне Тичино, до административного присоединения в 2004 году к Лугано — отдельная коммуна.

#Швейцария

Городок расположен на живописных склонах Монте-Бре, круто спускающихся в этом месте к озеру Лугано. В течение столетий его населяли преимущественно рыбаки, а также служащие таможен и пограничных постов. Внешний вид Гандрии за эти годы практически не изменился, привлекая туристов узкими улочками, старинными зданиями и переулками-лестницами.

Наибольший интерес представляют соборная церковь Сан-Вигилио, Ораторий Сан-Россо, расположенный в «Кантине-ди-Гандрия» Швейцарский таможенный музей. В лесу над озером Лугано сохранились Sasso della Predescia и Sasso di Gandrigna — два гигантских валуна эпохи последнего ледникового периода
