Log Text: A good place to start the visit is the Port of Magadino. There should be parking space. The Public Transport Stop is called "Magadino Casa Comunale". It takes half an hour for the walk upwards (distance 1 km), following the walking paths called "Sentiero Orgnana" and "Sentiero al Ragno". It is respectful when you do not visit when the grass is high in summer.
