Blenio Valley

Blenio Valley


The Blenio Valley is a picturesque subalpine valley stretching from the peaks of the Lukmanier Pass (1,914 m) to the rolling hills of Malvaglia (389 m). Nicknamed the Valley of the Sun, the Blenio Valley is a nature lover's paradise just waiting to be discovered. In summer, visitors can explore over 500 kilometres of well-marked hiking trails and mountain biking routes surrounded by breathtaking scenery. In winter, the valley transforms into a family-friendly spot with tailor-made ski and sledding runs and snowy cross-country skiing trails.

History also abounds and lives on in the Napoleonic militia parades, in the rooms of small and austere museums, in the ruins of the Serravalle Castle and in the halls of the Cima Norma factory where the ancient art of chocolate making has given way to the aromas and flavours of the region.

This valley is also home to hundreds of small rustic cottages where guests can experience an authentic and characteristic holiday.
