Mountaineering
Alpe Foppa is located at around 1500 meters above sea level and is a popular destination above Rivera. It is easily accessible by cable car to Monte Tamaro or on foot via various hiking trails. The Alp offers a magnificent view of the Ticino Alps and Lake Lugano. It is also known for the impressive chapel Santa Maria degli Angeli. In summer, hiking trails invite exploration, and in winter, snowshoe routes do the same. The combination of nature, tranquility, and architecture makes Alpe Foppa particularly attractive.
