Mountains.66

Goodness, these are the first images I’m showing you from my lovely out-and-back train ride from Locarno down to the remote, mountainous little village of Camedo, on the border between Italy & Switzerland and a bit west of Lago Maggiore. The area is called Centovalli because of all the steep, narrow valleys created by the side-streams that feed into the main valley-bottom river, the Melezza. This is a special line that runs between Domodossola and Locarno, serving quite a few tiny villages perched on the steep slopes along the way, and with (my guide book tells me) 17 impressive ironwork bridges along the way. I wish I’d had more time to explore it – but maybe next visit!
