Explore Locarno with a flexible app-led scavenger hunt featuring Piazza Grande, Castello Visconteo, photo tasks, and local history.
“Ich fand die Schnitzeljagd, an sich, eine sehr coole Sache und Abenteuerreich auch für Erwachsene Ich hätte jedoch Verbesserungsvorschläge. Je nach Uhr-& Jahreszeit wird es schnell Dunkel. Gut wäre es wenn man Lampen an gewisse Posten anbringen würde. Ausserdem könnte man manche Restaurants oder Gelaterin empfehlen die auf dem Weg, zwischen den unterschiedlichen Posten sind. Somit hat man keinen Stress bei der Essensfindung.”

Ride quiet Ticino back roads from Lugano with BikeBrix, visiting villages, waterfalls, rivers, and lakes with a local guide.

Pick a summit, a lake or a tasting room.
