Thanks, s! The time for the walk was what I was concerned with. I have some people in my group who can walk for a certain distance, but not, perhaps, four hours! So 40 minutes is about perfect, actually.

As always, thanks for all the great and detailed information!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone else care to chime in?

I'd try to talk you into adding one more day to Vevey somehow, so you'd have a better chance at getting thru your wish list there!

Hi, Maudie. I don't know where you are with your planning, but at the risk of being over-zealous, I'll repeat what I've just written at my Ticino trip report thread, and that is my discovery of the "promotional materials" pdf files at ticino-tourism.ch. If you've eliminated Ticino from your itinerary, don't look, but if not. . . . . . One of them seems to be on walks, another on food (I think I spotted an entire file on cheeses), and the one I'm deep into, "Contemplation." If you're in the mood to go clicking, I think the second icon in each set is the one in English. Be warned, you'll want to print them all. (Have I said how envious I am of your fifteen days?) J.

Hi,
Just had a nice bottle of wine and a Brie with our friends and we have decided to take out the Zermatt night and have an extra one either in Lugano or Vevey.

jwm44, I think I may have found the "walks" one you are talking about - that is where I got the info on the San Salvatore to Morcote walk and the Lugano to Gandria one but I will have another good look on that site for the others you mentioned. I also sent away for the promotional material which is quite interesting including a 3d type map.

Thanks for your suggestions.
Maudie

By the way jwm44 I really enjoyed reading your report - it inspired me.
