This suspension bridge is a real highlight. You should definitely cross it. Fascinating and frightening at the same time, considering what height it is and what length it is. In …

June 26, 2025,Alte Siedlung Curzútt – Ponte Tibetano Carasc Runde von Monte Carasso

A challenging tour that requires good fitness and surefootedness on some difficult trails with steep inclines. Definitely worth it.

The way up leads over stones and stone steps. Down mainly over scree, surrounded by chestnut forests.

There are 14 parking spaces at the starting point, although it depends somewhat on luck whether one or more of them are free.

At Curzútt you can buy a ticket for the train from the machine and you can travel down to the valley.

October 2, 2024,🇨🇭Ponte Tibetano Carasc - Curzütt 🇨🇭🌞 🌻🌴

Drove down to Sementina today in bright sunshine. From there the path went straight up steeply. Past palm trees🌴🌴 and vines through steep chestnut forests. The path leads up a good 2.5 km, sometimes very steep but beautifully trail-like.

There are always magnificent views of the mountains around Bellinzona 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩.

The cable car ride to the mountain village of Curzútt takes about 5 minutes. From there we continued uphill to the medieval church of S. Bernardo. There you have a beautiful view of the valley. And further uphill to the main goal. The Ponte Tibetano. At a height of 696m and a length of 270m, it spans the Sementina river …
