Visit the Orobie Park: the largest natural area in Lombardy's regional parks.

Off the beaten tourist track, but close to the Valle Seriana, there are three small valleys, just waiting to be discovered, either on foot or mountain bike

Wonderful in shape and size, the specimen on the Vivione Pass road is the most admired sycamore maple in Lombardy.

Hiking is an excellent way to enjoy exercise, and Lombardy has some amazing trails for kids and adults to explore in winter. Find out more.

Lombardy is a perfect destination for those who love mountain holidays in front of the beautiful scenery of the Alps.

Spriana - Montagna in Valtellina

Val di Mello, in the heart of the Rhaetian Alps, has often been compared to Yosemite National Park in California on account of its imposing granite walls, spectacular waterfalls and green meadows dotted with wild flowers.    Val di Mello is in the province of Sondrio, at the end of Val Masino. It can be reached along the SS 36 road to Colico, then continuing towards Sondrio, then to the municipality of Val Masino. Park in San Martino, purchase a pass at the Info Point and pay for the car park. Alternatively, you can get there by train, getting off at the station of Morbegno before continuing to Val di Mello by bus. The valley is suitable for families, thanks to the wide, practically flat trail. An uncontaminated atmosphere and the breathtaking panoramas are the ideal backdrop for a walk that takes about one and a half hours. Take care not to miss the Bidet della Contessa, a little Alpine lake with crystal clear waters; Qualido Lake, and Cascata di ferro, a spectacular waterfall in spring, when the waters are more abundant. There is no shortage of trattorias and refuges, where you can eat or spend the night. If you love climbing, Val di Mello has no tooled itineraries but it is a natural rock gym that attracts many rock climbing enthusiasts. 

The Lombardy summer shines bright in July, with concerts, art events and experiences to reconnect you with nature
