Travel guide to Locarno

Locarno

***** ***** *****
Locarno in the Italian speaking canton of Ticino is situated on Lago Maggiore. Lakeside promenades lined with palm trees and bougainvillea and wooded slopes dotted with cypresses give the town a subtropical feel.

A mild climate and the most sunshine hours in any place in Swizerland make Locarno into a favourite holiday destination. Add to this the bustling piazzas and arcades with open air cafés serving pizzas, pasta and cappuccino and it is difficult to imagine that this is Switzerland and not Italy.

Locarno is the starting point of the Centovalli railway, one of Switzerland's most scenic train rides. Trains chug through spectacular valleys, winding their way across precarious bridges and along steep ravines. If you decide to go on this train trip, sit on the left for the best views.
