The great wall of the Pizzo Bombögn was built in 1946 to protect the newly planted lark and fir trees from the goats.

It was a beautiful day for a hike to the capanna Motterascio. Even cows and marmots were relaxing and enjoying the fresh air.

The construction of the Gottardo railway started 1872. The whole line was inaugurated in 1882. Between Giornico 448m and Lavorgo 615m the train gains height by entering the two Biaschina double track spiral loop tunnels each approximately 1500m long.
The Biaschina viaduct of the A2 highway was built 100 years later in 1983.
