We are planning to do most of our trip to Switzerland by train but have 4 days based in Ascona and wondering if we should rent a car for our time in Ticino and to get to/from there. Would love some advice!
Family of 4. Two adults, two teenagers. We always rent a car in Europe, and my husband is looking forward to doing some mountain driving. In Ticino, we plan to visit a variety of places including small towns and outdoor activities (e.g., Bellinzona, Verzaska Valley, Lavertezzo, Morcote, Foroglio, Calnegia, Domodossola, Monte Tamaro).
I was thinking that the flexibility of a car would be worth it, but would love to hear thoughts from those who have visited the area before! Thanks in advance!
