A Journey Through Time and Nostalgia
This small funicular railway operates from the center of Locarno and is the most comfortable and romantic way to visit the Sacred Mount of Sasso, as well as the starting point for a charming tour of the Locarno hill region.
Riding the beautiful vintage cable car from 1958 is a delightful experience, complete with all its original elements. The control panel, doors that can't be closed, and old seats make the small cable car easily fill up, but it's a fun journey. It takes you to the pilgrimage site of Madonna del Sasso, where you can then stroll along the hillside paths. If you plan to return after visiting the summit, be sure to keep the paper ticket they issue, as the driver will check each ticket individually.

Cascata Froda
One of my favorite places in Switzerland, The ride to Sonogno is wonderful. I did it by Post bus with a tour group, so no chance to stop along the way at either the amazing dam or the jumping bridge. Sonogno itself is quite charming. With some extra time, the 20 minute walk to Froda is well worth it. It's not a world-beater for height, but it is scenic and a change from the village experience

Ascona used to be a small fishing village. Nowadays, many Europeans like to come here for a holiday and hold a wedding. It is a quiet lakeside town with beautiful scenery. Ascona is adjacent to Lake Maggiore and on the other side is France. In Ascona, explore the interesting shops in the winding alleys of the stone road, or take a walk along the blue lake Maggiore, or sit in the open-air stalls of the colorful lake. A guest ice cream, bathing in the sun, is extremely enjoyable.
Take the cable car to the Caldada Lookout, and as the cable car slowly heads to the top, the town of Locarno has a panoramic view. The Caldada Lookout is a beautiful bridge that hangs between the canopy of the forest. Standing here, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Lake Maggiore, Cento Valley and the Machia Valley in 180 degrees. And this viewing platform, which is regarded as one of Switzerland's five amazing landscape designs, may be a challenge for those who fear high, because the platform is really a deep abyss.
