Ticino as you’ve never seen it before! Aimed at people of all ages who love exploring, swimming and enjoying the outdoors, this book is a guide to spectacular locations on and in the water, including many that almost nobody knows about.

It includes descriptions and photos of 120 swimming spots with turquoise-blue pools, sheer, dramatic cliffs, waterfalls draped in mist and secluded, sandy beaches. They can all be reached on foot in less than an hour starting from a public transport stop or parking area. Maps, coordinates and precise directions show you the easiest ways to get there.

The guide also includes numerous safety tips and information on charming grottoes, ice cream parlours and weekly farmers’ markets.

Note: the book is also available in German (ISBN 978-3-907267-00-4), Italian (ISBN 978-88-7713-871-2) and French (ISBN 978-3-907267-01-1)
