Thanks to the collaboration between Swissminiatur and the Municipality of Morcote, you have the opportunity to spend a full day among fascinating itineraries in a sustainable way.
Park your car at the covered car park in Morcote; from here you can take the postbus (free of charge with Ticino Ticket) or just immerse yourself in the fantastic scenery of Lake Lugano from the boat (-20% discount with Ticino Ticket) and in no time you will be at Swissminiatur, where you will spend about 2 hours discovering the details of Switzerland in miniature. Show the Morcote PostBus Ticket issued on the same day at the kiosk cash desk and you and your companions will get a free ride on the Swissminiatur train! Then, you can comfortably go back to Morcote by postbus or boat to visit the wonderful ancient village that was elected Switzerland’s most beautiful village in 2016, as well as the Scherrer Park, called the “Garden of Wonders”.
