Monte Boglia is a peak that dominates the whole of Lake Lugano, it can be reached from both Italy and Switzerland, the effort once you get to the top is entirely rewarded by the extraordinary beauty of this place.

Il Boglia

Highlight • Summit

Panoramic summit. Wide view of Valsolda and Lugano. Excellent routes to reach it on the Ticino side. The climb from Albogasio is more impressive and tiring
