The Sottoceneri in Southern Switzerland has a new attraction: the cement educational trail in the Parco delle Gole della Breggia in Morbio Inferiore near Chiasso. The three initiators of the “Percorso del Cemento” – the canton Ticino, the Fondazione Parco delle Gole della Breggia and the Swiss cement manufacturer Holcim – handed over the cement educational trail to the population during a ceremony with representatives from industry and politics on 4 May 2012.
