The Fondazione Monte Verità is situated in the south of Switzerland (Canton Ticino) at Monte Verità.
The Fondazione Monte Verita and the cities of Ascona and Locarno have played a role at some instances in history and offer unique landscapes and many sights and visiting centers in walking or hiking distance and also interconnected by a public transport network. The latter also includes boats on the Lago Maggiore. Swimming in the Lago Maggiore as much as hiking across the hills and mountains is possible right out of your accommodation.

Due to limited service going to Monte Verita on Sundays we organize a shuttle bus which shall leave approximately every 20-30 minutes from Ascona Posta bringing you to the conference center at Monte Verita. If you are in one of the external hotels which are only about 200 meters away from Ascona Posta you should plan to drop off your luggage and/or check in before taking the shuttle bus. Shuttles are also provided to bring you to the train station after lunch on Thursday.
