“ Mendrisiotto and Basso Ceresio, where riding meets storytelling ”

Welcome to the southernmost region of Ticino — a sun-kissed playground tucked between the Mediterranean breeze and the mighty Alps. With over 1,900 hours of sunshine a year, this is Ticino’s “Sonnenstube”, the Sun Porch of Switzerland. Mild winters, vibrant summers, and all-season stoke — this is your 365-day riding zone.

From November to April, when most trails elsewhere freeze over, this enchanting southern Alpine region stays dry and ride-ready with surprisingly warm temps.

Summer? We shift gears to the cooler altitudes of Monte Generoso (1200–1500 m) for epic trail days, then cool off by the lake with wakeboarding, SUP, or a cold one in hand.

Golden trails at dawn. Misty ridgelines in winter. Lake reflections under the summer sun. the southernmost region of Ticino is not just rideable year-round — it’s photogenic every single day.

Whether you’re chasing winter flow, golden hour climbs, or lakeside vibes — this south region delivers year-round adventure.
