The Trekking dei Laghetti in Ticino is a beautiful hut-to-hut hike in the stunning Valle Maggia region of Switzerland. It’s an ideal combination of natural beauty and hiking as this multi-day trek begins in the small alpine village of Fusio at the end of the valley and guides hikers through a variety of scenic alpine landscapes, from mountain trails to the calm, reflective waters of alpine mountain lakes, known as “laghetti.” The trail offers well-marked paths, though challenging trails, making it accessible to moderately experienced hikers who are looking for an adventure in this lesser known part of the Swiss Alps.
Hikers on the Trekking dei Laghetti can expect a challenge, with manageable distances covered each day but sometimes a scramble on the big boulders of Ticino on the alpine paths. The route typically takes five days to complete, with overnight stays at traditional mountain huts, or rifugi, where you can rest and enjoy local Ticinese cuisine. These huts provide simple, comfortable accommodations with most of the time even a shower. This trail is a part of the Via Alta Vallemaggia which is a long-distance trail of 17 stages in the Valle Magia region. It’s an amazing experience!
