Workation in Lugano: the essentials
Palm-lined promenades and Italian on every shop sign make it easy to forget which country you are in. With about 64,000 residents Lugano is the largest city in Ticino, spread around a wide bay of Lake Lugano between Monte Brè and Monte San Salvatore, both served by funiculars. Banking built the place, the Università della Svizzera italiana adds students, and since 2022 the city's Plan B initiative has courted crypto companies, which has brought some new coworking. Milan Malpensa, about 45 km away across the border, is the practical airport. Zurich is under two hours away by direct train since the Ceneri Base Tunnel opened.
