Lugano sits on one of the southern tips of Switzerland, on Lake Lugano. It is a city of 55,000 that is directly on the crystal blue lake, with mountains surrounding the area. It is known for its warm summers and snow filled winters that are perfect for skiing and snowboarding.
Water sports are a great way to spend your summer vacation here, and it has become such a wonderful place that it has gotten the nickname “Monte Carlo, Switzerland.” If you come in the fall, Lugano offers an Autumn Festival and Musical from the Orchestra of the Italian Switzerland. These magical evening symphonies are from October 28 – December 23.
In the summer months, there are water sports, fishing, and over 30 cruises that go out on the beautiful Lake Lugano. They will take you to the most romantic spots, and often allow you to stop and climb a mountain. Lugano offers a Mediterranean experience in a quaint town in Switzerland.
