‘Ticino is the eastern region of Switzerland near the Italian border, little known by the British yet readily accessible from Locarno. Kev Reynolds writes with such affection and infectious enthusiasm for this most tranquil of Alpine regions, with its granite peaks, wooded valleys and lost villages, that readers will be unable to resist planning a visit at the next opportunity.’
