Route Alpe Foppa – Alpe Foppa

Already at the valley station of the Monte Tamaro gondola in Rivera it becomes clear: This mountain is almost an adventure playground. Pictures of downhill bikers, zip line flyers and toboggan run racers can be seen. After the ascent from Rivera to Alpe Foppa, a different picture emerges: Monte Tamaro is also a wonderful place of peace. Only a few steps from the mountain restaurant stands the church Santa Maria degli Angeli, designed by the well-known architect Mario Botta. Like a ship's jetty, it juts into the expanse of the Ticino mountain world.
