Description

At high altitudes, the air in Valposchiavo on sunny days is often blindingly clear. It is the light of the south that makes the landscape shine. San Romerio is nestled on a promontory overlooking Lake Poschiavo. Benches overlooking the lake invite you to take a break; In the adjacent refreshment you can replenish yourself with food and drinks. This enchanting place can be reached with a long hike. The climb is easy at first, then it becomes steeper and steeper and winds through spruce and larch forests. Above the forest, the view suddenly opens up over the Poschiavo Valley and the nearby Valtellina. On the descent to the village of Viano you will enjoy beautiful views. Until the 70s Viano was an important place for the smuggling of sugar, coffee and tobacco.

Hidden Gem
