Winter in ticino<br />

This only happens in <strong>Ticino</strong>: while over Airolo and Carì<br />

snowboards almost touch the sky, an hour’s drive further south,<br />

golfers hit their balls on the green courses of Losone. And you can<br />

even wear a light sweater while shopping in Lugano’s old town<br />

during the morning, which will last you until you glide on crosscountry<br />

skis across the sugary white of the Leventina during the<br />

afternoon.<br />

PURE NATURE, GUARANTEED<br />

You can also stay in the Blenio Valley and experience winter<br />

the traditional southern way: under radiant sunlight in a small,<br />

white-covered paradise, as a guest of the cheerful inhabitants of<br />

<strong>Ticino</strong>, who will warm up your heart even in bad weather. Or have<br />

fun on the snow, on the idyllic Campra, on cross-country or touring<br />

skis, freestyle boards, snow shoes, or carving skis. Or visit one<br />

of the famous Romanesque churches. Or perhps take a trip to Nara<br />

with its many attractions including a “Snow Park” and a sledge run,<br />

or Airolo, the ideal departure point for skiing, or the friendly villages<br />

of Campo Blenio and Ghirone, offering ski facilities especially<br />

suitable for beginners.<br />

Wherever people fly down the ski-slopes, in <strong>Ticino</strong>, you’re<br />

only a stone’s throw <strong>from</strong> the street cafés under the palm trees, and<br />

<strong>from</strong> a breath of spring air.<br />

YOU CAN GO STRAIGHT FROM THE PISTE<br />

TO THE STREET CAFÉ UNDER THE PALM TREES.<br />

While in Airolo, skis almost touch the sky,<br />
