It connects the Magadino Plain and the Vedeggio Valley across the Lugano Prealps at an elevation of 554 metres (1,818 ft) above sea level. It provides the most direct route between the cities of Bellinzona and Lugano. Despite its name (monte is the Italian word for "mountain"), Monte Ceneri is the lowest point on the crest between Monte Tamaro and the Camoghè.Two tunnels have been dug under Monte Ceneri, the Monte Ceneri Road Tunnel for the A2 motorway and the Monte Ceneri Rail Tunnel for the Gotthard railway. A new rail tunnel, the Ceneri Base Tunnel, was opened in 2020, and connects Camorino near Bellinzona and Vezia near Lugano.The pass is situated in the recently created municipality of Monteceneri and the district of Lugano. The Monte Ceneri radio transmitter is located close to the pass.The larger part of Ticino, which lies to the north of Monte Ceneri and includes the valley of the Ticino river and the cities of Bellinzona and Locarno, is often referred to as the Sopraceneri (above the Ceneri). The smaller part to the south, which includes Lugano, Mendrisio and Chiasso, takes the name Sottoceneri (under the Ceneri).

The Funivia di Monteviasco (Monteviasco Ropeway) is a passenger cable car connecting Ponte di Piero and Monteviasco, in the Italian comune of Curiglia con Monteviasco (province of Varese). The cable car was built and inaugurated in 1989 in order to break the isolation of the village of Monteviasco in val Veddasca (a valley near the Lago Maggiore), which is not reached by driveways or railways and was previously accessible only by a couple of steep footpaths.The base station in Ponte di Piero is at an altitude of 543m, with the top station in Monteviasco at 943m. The cable car climbs with an ascension of 400m in an overall length of 981m.The cableway features a single car carrying 15 people; the service runs year-round, with different timetables depending from the season.Tickets are sold in both stations; the prices are set by the regional authority of Lombardy, because the cableway is part of the public transport network.Since November 12, 2018 the cableway is out of order, following a fatal accident which caused the death of a maintenance technician.
