Summary

A lovely little paradise where you can settle in and simply let your mind wander for a week. Recharge your batteries surrounded by nature and the beauty of creation, with a view of the entire Maggia Valley. Be connected only to the earth, the air, and yourself.

Here, you can simply take a deep breath, relax, and recharge. Find your center. Enjoy healthy, locally sourced food. Detox from it all while still being right in the middle of the world. An oasis for body, mind, and soul. A week in nature, with a stunning view of the Maggia Valley, surrounded by birch trees and a boundless horizon, with filtered water from the stream and 24 hours of fresh air. There’s nothing better than spending the night in the spacious and cozy glamping tent. An exclusive spot just for you or your companion,

It takes a little time to settle in up here in nature, let everything sink in, and find your center. But that makes it all the more wonderful to retreat into yourself and find your inner peace. There’s a bit of adventure involved, too: in the upper Maggiatal, you first head into a side valley, and from there, the hike takes about 2 to 3 hours with light luggage. The journey and the transition are always very beautiful and bring you a step closer to yourself.

As your host and guide, I’ll cook for you and take care of the simple, practical aspects of daily life. If a conversation arises, I’m happy to be there—though I tend to stay in the background to preserve the space for silence and retreat.

Comfort is kept to a minimum—so that space can emerge.

Catering

We’re more than happy to accommodate dietary requests. Please just let us know your preferences in advance. I buy a lot of my groceries directly from the village store, and most of it is organic and locally sourced. From tea to coffee, we have everything you need. Meals are prepared in the barn/stone house, and you can enjoy your meal at the large oak table outside, with a beautiful view of the entire Maggiatal valley.

sequence

There’s no set schedule here, no noise, no distractions—just time. You can structure your day however you like. Whether that means sleeping in or starting the day with yoga. There’s a small, lovely spot nestled among the birch trees for your yoga practice or meditation. Enjoy a cup of tea at the large dining table, with a view across the entire valley, or have breakfast right in the lounge. Relax in the hammock or in a lounge chair. Read a book, sketch, or simply linger among the birch trees and listen to the humming of the bees.

Enjoy a delicious lunch with fine cheese from the Maggia Valley and vegetables. Treat yourself to a shower under the nearby waterfall and pamper yourself. Soak up the sun and observe your thoughts. Savor a cup of coffee or tea while chatting. Listen to an affirmation and later enjoy dinner at the large table. Marvel at the wood-burning stove in the tent, drift off to sleep comfortably, and admire the starry sky beforehand. Simply be grateful for the day and for life.

A place of presence—and at the same time, full of tranquility.

Arrival

It takes 50 minutes by car or post bus from Locarno to the upper Maggiatal (Lavizzara), where I’ll be happy to pick you up by car. Free parking is available. If you’re a good hiker, you can also hike 1 hour and 15 minutes into the Seintental valley. That brings the total hiking time to about 3 hours and 30 minutes. We’ll arrive in Lavizzara around 12:00 p.m., so there’s plenty of time for the ascent.

You should have sure-footedness and be able to walk slowly up the mountain for 2 to 3 hours and do some very easy climbing (T3), and you should have already completed a hike like this before. Please bring your hiking poles—it makes the hike much easier—and don’t bring a backpack larger than 40 liters. The bigger the backpack, the more you’ll end up carrying, and traveling light makes for a much easier hike. Up here, you can recharge and let go.

I live with my wife and daughter and work in HR. I love spending time at my favorite spot here in Ticino. I’m delighted to be able to help you experience an unforgettable moment of tranquility in your life. Warm regards, Stefan
