Etp 1 Paradiso - Bellinzona (-San Bernardino - Chur)

It is probably the easiest of the three stretches of this collection. From Paradiso you follw the road down to Melide where you join the bike route #3 along Morcote to Figino - Agno where you get into the Veddegio Valley, all the way up to the Ceneri Passroad. The nice touch is that the way up is not nearly as steep as the way down into the Magadino plain. But it is super sexy to let your bike run. At 50 km/h the adrenalin kicks in for sure. The rest to bellinzona is afterwards just a piece of cake. 

Carefull you need a mountain bike or a trekking bike in case you want to go via the woods along the Veddegio river.
