The fascination of the little cog train that reaches the summit of Monte Generoso at a height of 1704m in only 40 minutes, crossing one of the most beautiful Swiss panoramas south of the Alps, the splendid environment offered by the “Locanda ticinese” and the restaurant “Vetta Monte Generoso”, where up to 300 persons can be accommodated, with views over the Gulf of Lugano, the Alpine chain from Gran Paradiso to the Matterhorn and from Monte Rosa to the Jungfrau, offers a unique setting for your excursion.
The dishes want to mirror the cooking tradition of the Ticino and Lombardia regions, from the risottos to the polenta and the braised rabbit, following the flow of the seasons as closely as possible. Simple dishes and sometimes rather rustic, but always of high quality and presented with care and love.
The salami and cheeses are of local production and, whenever possible, actual products from the district of Monte Generoso. With a bit of luck (because it is not always available) we are even in a position to offer guests the “mythical” Zincarlin cheese of the Generoso and the Valle di Muggio.
The guided tour of the Astronomical observatory for a viewing of the heavens will certainly complete your departure from Monte Generoso in a very exclusive and unforgettable way!
Also a visit to the “Grotta dell’Orso” where you can see bone relics from at least 300 cave bears of varying eras, dating from between 35,000 and 45,000 years ago, represents a totally exceptional, not to mention unusual offer.
