Tamaro Summit
Ready to conquer the summit of Monte Tamaro?
Starting from Alpe Foppa, follow the dirt road up to Capanna Tamaro for a well-deserved break. From here, a path carved into the mountain will guide you along the ridge. In one hour and 40 minutes, you will reach an altitude of 1,962 meters. The 360-degree panorama will leave you speechless: your gaze will sweep from the Po Valley to giants like the Matterhorn and Monte Rosa. On the way back, you can retrace your steps, admiring the Bellinzona region, or opt for the Monte Tamaro Tour. An absolute must for every hiker!
For those who do not wish to descend the same route, we recommend the Tour of Monte Tamaro.
