Review & FAQ:

Lugano lies nestled on the shores of Lake Lugano in southern Switzerland's Ticino region, which is known for its mild climate and many days of sunshine. The region is perfect for outdoor pursuits of all kinds and is particularly popular with mountain bikers, who come to explore over 230 miles of scenic trails. Other popular outdoor activities include golf, rock climbing, and paragliding as well as boating on Lake Lugano. To get the most from your visit you should take at least one guided tour, either on foot or by boat or cycle, to learn some of the history of the region. For a break from outdoor pursuits you can visit the Lugano Cultural Center, the Gold Mining Museum, or the Swissminiatur - an open-air miniature townscape.
