CONQUER THE SUMMIT, CONTEMPLATE YOUR VIEW
What if this experience was a chakra?
AJNA - I SEE. The third eye chakra.Insight, lucidity, meditation, confidence.
On this hike you can see the lake from above, from the top of the Gambarogno
Mount Gambarogno is the real star of this scenic trek. But so is the lake, as a natural complement.
And you will reach the top of Gambarogno, elevation 1734 m, to enjoy unparalleled views of Ascona, Locarno, the Maggia Delta and the entire Lake Maggiore region.
On foot, the summit can be reached from Alpe di Neggia, where you arrive by car or by public transport in approx. 40 minutes by taking from 'Piazzogna, village' line B352, direction 'Indemini, village'.
Stop at the Alpe to taste their fresh yogurt or cheese. From there, tackle the scenic route to the summit - just over an hour's walk.
Almost at the summit, at an elevation of 1,723 m, you will find the famous Gambarögn Hut, built in the early 1900s for military purposes and later converted into a cozy hut, with 10 beds and a restaurant with mountain cuisine, a place of sustainability and support for local producers of bread meat meats, milk and cheese produced and refined by artisans known by name.
Please note: Gambarögn Hut is open from Wednesday to Sunday and from May to November.
Plus > about 5 km from the Hut, visit the village of Indemini, a unique example of traditional architecture. Stone houses, narrow streets, labyrinthine passages. Essence of the mountain.
