簡介

Pizzo Leone lies between Centovalli and Lago Maggiore. From the peak, you can enjoy a wonderful, richly contrasted view of the two landscapes.

Description

There are no roads leading to Rasa – the little village is car-free and can only be reached by cable car. The mountain hike first takes you up a slight ascent past the neighbouring hamlet of Monti and on to the deserted hut on Alpe Termine. From here, the route becomes considerably steeper. The path winds through expansive chestnut forests and up to Pizzo Leone.

Its rocky ridge is a first-class viewing platform. Down below, elongated Lago Maggiore stretches out like a fjord, extending as far as the broad Magadino plain. The view towards the north, however, is completely different: the picturesque landscape of the Centovalli is made up of deep valleys and wild gorges. A panorama trail with breathtaking views now descends gently along the mountain ridge towards Alpe di Naccio and Corona di Pinz. From here, you ascend once again, following a winding path that leads past Cassina, Purèra and Non and on to Ronco.

You can then return to Ascona by bus or opt for a slightly slower return by boat across the lake.
