Cycling in Mendrisiotto to discover wine.

We invite you to enjoy a unique experience: a guided bike tour through the hills of Mendrisiotto, with a visit to three wineries and tasting of at least ten local wines, accompanied by local delicacies.
Mendrisiotto is the most wine-producing region in Ticino, thanks to its unique terroir that offers perfect conditions for the production of excellent wines.
