Monte Caslano

Monte Caslano is a forested mountain that rises between Lake Lugano and the surrounding terrain in the Ticino region. The mountain features several peak areas with different views of the water and neighboring highlands.

The mountain received protected status in the past to preserve its natural features and plant diversity. This designation came about through scientific recognition of its importance to the region.

The walking paths serve as meeting spaces where local people and visitors come together to experience the proximity of forest and lake. Along the trails you encounter residents who regularly visit to walk or take fresh air.

The marked trails are well signposted and offer different routes depending on your available time and fitness level. Visitors should bring sturdy footwear and be prepared for changing weather.

The mountain is home to uncommon moss species and plants that have adapted to the steep rock faces and damp conditions. These species are difficult to find elsewhere in the region.
