The beautiful Valle di Muggio.

The Valle di Muggio is a lovely valley found in Ticino, which is a part of Switzerland. It's special because it's the very southernmost valley in the whole country!

The valley gets its name from the village of Muggio. This village is the biggest place where people live in the valley. High up in the valley, you'll find Roncapiano, which is the highest village. It's so high that the roads actually end there! A river called the Breggia flows through the valley. This river then goes into Italy and eventually reaches Lake Como. In Italy, people sometimes call this area the Valle Breggia.
