ROADS WITH TALES TO TELL<br />

In <strong>Ticino</strong>, these new experiences on old roads are not only<br />

to be found on the Tremola. The “Via delle Genti” - “People’s<br />

Road” is worthwhile, along with a visit to “La Claustra”, an architectural<br />

gem, where deep in the body of the Gotthard mountain,<br />

rocks, water, light and fire create a spectacle for the senses. Even<br />

the Leventina has a whole host of surprises up its sleeve for its visitors.<br />

The roads in the Piottino gorge have been restored and at the<br />

exit is the “Dazio Grande”, an old customs house, converted into a<br />

cultural centre with an exhibition area in its cellar, telling of the<br />

dramatic history of Gotthard and the Leventina.<br />
