The picturesque village of Morcote is a must-see for any traveler to Switzerland! Situated on the shore of Lake Lugano, it was voted Switzerland's most beautiful village in 2016. Explore its laneways, lined with impressive buildings and cobbled streets from its medieval past; its pilgrimage church is not to be missed! Visit Scherrer Park, a flourishing oasis of subtropical plants and host to cultural and artistic events. Take a breath-taking view of the village and the lake from up here, and enjoy Lake Lugano Cruises, the panorama trail around San Salvatore to Morcote, or the Dream Route Melide - Montagnola! Morcote has something for everyone so be sure to make time for this hidden gem!
