Capanna TomeoPhoto: Ascona-Locarno Tourism
The Capanna Tomeo is located in a landscape carved into the rock, near the lake of Tomeo of intense colors, at the foot of bold peaks and ridges and at the center of trails and passes that lead to the neighboring valleys.
Modern building with all the comforts that replaces the old refuge.
This hut is located on the high road of the Maggia Valley and is therefore an interesting place to stay for those who cross it.
