    Sehr schöne Tour mit einer tollen Aussicht. Allerdings war die Strecke bei uns 16km statt der angegebenen 11. Nach starkem Regen, wenn der Boden sehr nass ist, wird der Abstieg eine ziemliche Herausforderung.

    Sehr schöne Tour. Sind von Arogno hoch und auch wieder hinuntergelaufen. Am Berg oben sucht man am besten einen Nebengipfel auf der weniger besucht ist. Definitiv sollte man die Wochenenden meiden. Eine starke Kondition wird benötigt, technisch aber einfach.

    Danke für die tolle Touren-Beschreibung. Der GPS Track ist super hilfreich. Sobald man den Einstieg gefunden hat ist der Weg fast immer gut zu sehen. Wir sind tatsächlich keinem einzigen Wanderer begegnet - ist also scheinbar ein Geheimtipp. Wenn man mit der Zahnrad-Bahn vom Gipfel nach Capolago-Riva S. Vitale abfährt (36 CHF) kommt man direkt am Bahnhof an und kann mit S50 und Bus 541 direkt nach Arogno Paese fahren, wo ein großer Parkplatz ist und der Tourstart hier empfohlen wurde. Ab Capolago ca. 35 min, ca. 4,5 EUR pP. Hätten wir mehr Zeit gehabt wären wir noch eine Station der Zahnradbahn abgestiegen (laut Personal 1h). Am Gipfel ist es leider sehr touristisch, da viele Tagesausflügler mit der Bahn kommen.

    Tolle Tour mit einigen Höhenmetern und tollen Ausblicken auf die umliegenden Berge und den Luganer See. Ein echtes Highlight und uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen. Bahn und Bus zurück nach Arogno haben auch super geklappt.
