Caviano and the discovery of Monte Generoso

Monte Generoso is one of the most scenic mountains in Ticino. Alpe di Caviano is the ideal destination for a day trip or a stay in nature, and can be reached on foot from Castel San Pietro or Bellavista. Walking in these places, you can enjoy breathtaking views.

Terraces, contemplation, and relaxation

Alpe di Caviano offers a relaxing environment with panoramic views of the Po Valley and the Alps. The main building overlooks a large meadow where wild animals graze freely. The view is spectacular at sunrise and sunset, and can also be enjoyed from the rooms on the first floor and from the terrace in the courtyard. An ideal place to enjoy moments of tranquility and contemplation.

Views and surroundings

The terrace of Alpe di Caviano offers a wide and breathtaking view, ideal for spotting wild animals. The surrounding hill is perfect for meditation, while the adjacent pasture is excellent for paragliding. The network of hiking trails allows you to explore the area, including Scudellate, where other facilities of the Albergo Diffuso del Monte Generoso are located.
