Getting to the Cimetta (1671 m) involves a funicular train ride (to Orselina), a cable car (to Cardada) and a final chair lift to the top. If the weather is clear it is worth every penny as the views are magnificent. The train runs from the town centre. There is a restaurant or cafe at each stage of the journey. You can walk or cycle it if you wish. Very highly recommended.

San Bernardino Pass in the Canton of Ticino Swiss Alps Switzerland is a stunning picturesque area that looks right out of a travel magazine. We were on our way to Lake Como Italy on our grand tour of every country that borders the alps. It is worth a drive thru this area we prefer the winding mountain roads to a tunnel.
