Overview of your Locarno tour

We’ll start our day in Lavertezzo, famous for its iconic double-arched bridge and crystal-clear waters. From there, we’ll drive to Brione, where our hike begins, winding through scenic trails toward the charming village of Sonogno. Along the way, we’ll explore the village, admire traditional stone houses, and experience local life. Afterward, we’ll hike up to the Froda Waterfall, one of Ticino’s most energetic and awe-inspiring spots, where the sound and power of nature are unforgettable. Before enjoying our picnic, we’ll stop at a local shop to select authentic Ticino products, making our lunch truly special. The day combines hiking, culture, and nature, offering panoramic views, hidden gems, and an immersive taste of Valle Verzasca — all with the guidance of a local who knows the valley’s secrets.
