Alpe Mornera (Ticino, Switzerland)

This area provides a broad range of walks through the chestnut woods, suitable for families. Among the dense chestnut woods, one still finds traces of the antique peasant culture with a few openings offering views over Bellinzona castles and the Magadino Plains. Two other noteworthy features are a visit to the S. Bernardo church and the old centre of Curzútt, where a hotel is now located. Featuring panoramic views over the Bellinzona region, a «grotto», two lakes and a «launching base» for paragliding... Mornera (1'347m) is a mountain waiting to be discovered.
