Starting from Locarno, travel in direction of Cannobio on a lakeside road through mild curves. Once you arrive in Cannobio, take the turn towards the Cannobina Valley, where you can enjoy the woods and a steep mountain road with narrow curves. At the intersection with Malesco, take the road that leads you to the Centovalli (literally, the valley of a hundred valleys), passing through the Vigezzo Valley and the famous Re Sanctuary. The curves will accompany you through the Centovalli and its characteristic villages. Don’t miss the fascinating view on the Melezza River, with its amazing colors; don’t forget to enjoy the picturesque village of Intragna with its well-known bell tower and evocative bridge.
