Possibly the prettiest village on Lake Lugano, San Mamete is just five minutes from the Swiss Border. It has a fairy-tale castle and the peaceful valley of Valsoldo is its backdrop. San Mamete is a delightful 17th century village nestled on the shores of Lake Lugano at the entrance to Valsolda. The village offers the following services: a hotel, 2 restaurants, 2 bars, 2 banks, 2 grocery stores, a hairdresser, a post office, a doctor’s office and a boat dock for commercial use. (Please see the town map above for locations.) After crossing the border from Switzerland in the direction of Porlezza, you will find some of the most scenic coastline and charming villages found anywhere on the Italian Lakes.
