The [[River Ticino]] is the largest river in the canton. It drains most of the canton, flowing from the northwest through the [[Bedretto Valley]] and the [[Leventina]] valley to enter the lake near [[Bellinzona]]. Its main tributaries are the [[Brenno]] in the [[Blenio Valley]] and the [[Moesa]] in the [[Mesolcina Valley]]. The lands of the canton are shaped by the river and form a wide valley, commonly known as the ''Riviera''.
The western lands of the canton, however, are drained by the [[River Maggia]]. The [[Verzasca Valley]] is located between the Ticino river and the Maggia river. There is also a small area that drains directly into the [[Lake Lugano]]. Most of the lands is considered as within the [[Alps]], but a small area is part of the plain of the [[River Po]] which drains the north of [[Italy]]. The best coffee in Ticino is in the small village of Fusio, in an art gallery/cafe on the left side of the road. Enjoy!
