Ticino is the only canton in Switzerland that is south of the Alps. It is milder than the rest of the country, feeling a bit more like Tuscany than Switzerland. Lugano sits on the shores of Lake Lugano and is surrounded by the forested gentle foothills of the Alps.
People come to walk in the hills, swim and sail in the lake, and relax.
