Maggia Valley
The Maggia Valley is a long, wild valley in Ticino, running north-west from Locarno. A green river with clear pools runs down it, and granite villages cling to the slopes. It is quiet and has few crowds.
It is a place for river swimming, short walks and stone villages. The valley feels remote, though Locarno is less than an hour away.
