On a Snowy Walk among the Swiss Mountains | The Chestnut Trail (Part 2)
In this video we'll be going on a late fall morning hike to the so called 'Chestnut Trail' (Sentiero del Castagno), which stretches through the picturesque villages and colorful forests of an area known as the Alto Malcantone.
It's located on the mountains above the lakeside city of Lugano, not far from the imposing Swiss Alps which can be seen far off in the distance.
The chestnut trail has a total length of 15 km (a little over 9 miles) and has a few different routes that you can follow, some longer than others.
Most of it is an easy and laid back walk, which can be experienced by pretty much anyone. Well, as long as climbing up hills and walking on uneven terrain is not an issue for you! :)
On this itinerary we'll be able to visit the various villages of the area, which are all incredibly scenic and picturesque!
They are built along the steep mountain slopes on the edge of cliffs, small valleys and dense forests that fill up the mountainside almost all the way to the summits.
They also all have a very long history, dating back almost a thousand years!
Today our walk resumes on the outskirts of the village of Vezio, which is where we left off at the end of part 1.
A couple of weeks have gone by since then, and the peak of autumn has already ended. The landscape is a lot more barren and cold, since winter is not that far off by now.
That being said a little bit of snow has fallen in the meantime, which does add a lot of charm to this place!
From Vezio we'll quickly get back on the trail heading out into the woods. Huge piles of leaves are on the ground now, together with countless chestnuts, the last remaining of the season. :)
After an uphill through the forest we'll take a different route from that of the main itinerary, like we did in part 1.
This alternate route leads us to the village center of Fescoggia, an incredibly quiet and picturesque place. ^.^
At the top of the village we'll then rejoin with the main path once again, which will lead us way out into the wilderness of the area along the mountainside.
This second section of the Chestnut Trail ends back just outside of Vezio, but at the very top of the village this time!
Since the trail is pretty long, it's going to be divided into multiple parts:
- Part 1 (ua-cam.com/video/Yp7FbqFJ_m0/v-deo.html) is from Arosio to Vezio.
- Part 2 (this one) is a loop from Vezio to Vezio again, after going on a long walk reaching the neighboring villages of Fescoggia and Breno.
- Part 3 will be the one the most further out into the woods yet, and also the one in which we'll head back to Arosio completing the trail as a whole.
The Alto Malcantone Chestnut Trail is one of the best and most well known of the entire region, so I hope you'll be able to enjoy it!
What are we waiting for? Let's check it out!

    Today we'll get back to the Chestnut Trail, picking up where we left off in part 1! A couple of weeks have gone by since then, making the scenery a lot closer to winter rather than autumn. A little bit of snow has fallen in the meantime too, which was very unexpected. ^.^ P.s.: I don't know when part 3 will be, because I haven't recorded it yet. Sorry about that, but I'll be sure to finish the hike sooner or later! About more content: On UA-cam: the next video will be on December 19th.

It's the charming village of Varenna, which is considered to be the top 2 spot of Lake Como, right after Bellagio.

    Winter might be getting closer and closer by the day, but there is still some time left in the current season for one more walk. ^.^ This is the most cozy and colorful one to date, making it a great way to say goodbye to autumn in style! About the * at 05:03 -> when going on a walk in autumn a cloudy day is by far the best weather you could hope for. That's because the sunlight is being filtered through the clouds, spreading it evenly across the landscape and making the colors really stand out! On a clear sunny day you'll instead get overwhelming light when in the sun and a cold, almost lifeless view when in the shadow! About more content: On UA-cam: the next video will be on December 5th.

    Bellagio is a very renowned location, both in Italy and worldwide. That being said, what most people know about this place is the town center and maybe the beautiful gardens of Villa Melzi, which are directly adjacent to it. Bellagio is a lot bigger than that though, and also includes several hamlets located both along the shores and up the nearby hills and mountains. Loppia is one of these hamlets, so let's go check it out! :) About more content: On UA-cam: the next video will be on November 14th.

    [ There is a typo at 09:33 , sorry about that. :( ] About the * at 01:34 -> there is actually another explanation as to where the name 'red church' comes from, which stems from some local legends. This one dates much further back, to the Christmas night of the year 1390. The tale goes that several people from a local powerful family were massacred inside the church by a rival family. The 'red' in this case would symbolize the color of the blood spilled on that day! About more content: On UA-cam: the next video will be on November 7th.

      The video was recorded around midday actually, it's just a very quiet village! I remember seeing 5 or so people around, plus those in the cars going by. I try to avoid recording people whenever possible though, both because I don't want to bother anyone and because it's very time consuming to blur their faces (this includes license plates as well), so many places might appear emptier than they actually are. :)

    Today we'll move closer to the Alps, walking around a beautiful and quiet valley. I hope you'll enjoy this short yet very picturesque hike. ^.^ P.s.: this path actually continues past the church at the end, reaching a second smaller one not long after. Unfortunately I didn't know about it back then, so we'll have to check that out some other time! :( (It's the red building on the top-left at 02:38 .) About the * at 03:51 : while the main road ends, a narrow mountain road does continue for over 5 kilometers still (a bit over 3 miles). There are some very small hamlets and a few houses along the way, but overall it just heads into the wilderness of the far end of the valley. Since it doesn't really lead anywhere there are some restrictions on it, so just consider Rossa to be as far as you can get by car. That area is incredibly calm and scenic though, so it's a great place for a bycicle ride or a long and easy walk in the midst of nature!

    Thank you for the beautiful videos. So peaceful and informative. I love the doors and winding alley ways. And the noises that make it all so real. I think you put a lot of effort into us coming along and for that, thank you so much.

    It's time to continue our voyage along the tepid waters of Lake Como. ^.^ In this third part we'll finally reach the center of the lake, where the most renowned destinations are located. We'll then keep heading north, towards the end of this very long ferry ride! See you in part 4! :) About more content: On UA-cam: the next video will be on September 12th.

    [ There is a missing word at 06:56 , sorry about that. :( ] Fun fact: what you see at 06:38 is the flag of Ticino, the local canton (the swiss equivalent of a state). Switzerland as a whole is a confederation composed of 26 member states, of which Ticino is the southernmost one. It lies almost entirely south of the alps and it's the only one where Italian is the sole official language.

      I'm glad you liked it! :) If you are in the area I highly suggest taking a look at the hamlets of Castello and San Mamete, which are both incredibly beautiful as well!

    Is there anything more lovely than the buzzing of cicadas in the summer? I don't think so. :) P.s.: this video was recorded over the course of two different days, so you might notice some unusual changes in the weather!

    I know I'm a year late but I just wanted to let you know that if you keep walking up past the flyover, you reach a huge waterfall in a wooded area. It seems you didn't make it that far sadly. Maybe next time, definitely worth the climb!

      Thank you for the heads up! I completely missed it. :( This is one of my earlier videos, so I might redo it in the future. If/when that happens I'll make sure to plan it better :)

      Lenno and Tremezzo are really beautiful places! I haven't been to Rogaro yet, but I do plan to sometime in the future. I have seen a few pictures and it looks like a really picturesque hamlet! :)

    This is part 2 of 4 of the longest ferry ride of Lake Como! I hope you enjoyed it so far. ^.^ Next time we'll see from up close the so called 'Big 3' of the lake: Bellagio, Menaggio and Varenna! About the * at 02:18 -> the gondola lift has actually been closed since October 2022. As of August 2024 it seems to be about to finally reopen though! About more content: On UA-cam: I'll upload a short in the next few days, while the next video will be -on August 9th- . There has been a schedule change! I'll take a bit of time off for summer vacation, so the next one will be on August 22nd. :) On instagram: I upload the best pictures that I take multiple times per week, so check it out if you want! -> instagram.com/walkin.swan/ Thank you very much for watching! :)

    It's a torrid summer morning. At a time like this there is nothing better than to go on a walk by the lakeside, enjoying the sound of the waves and maybe hoping for a slight breeze to cool you down a bit. :) A bench in the shade of a tree really does wonders sometimes!
