Sassariente, Mountain summit in Ticino, Switzerland.
Located at 1,768 meters above sea level, Sassariente features a network of trails through forests and rocky sections leading to its elevated peak.
The mountain holds remnants of the 'Muro dei Polacchi', a stone wall constructed by Polish internees during the period of 1940 along its hiking paths.
The summit of Sassariente displays a large metal cross at its peak, following the Swiss tradition of marking significant mountain summits with religious symbols.
The main hiking circuit spans 12.86 kilometers with a 666-meter elevation gain, starting from Monti di Motti and requiring approximately 4 hours and 40 minutes.
A wooden boardwalk installation near the summit provides secure passage during the final 15 minutes of ascent, complete with safety chains for climber protection.
