Around the world in Lombardy

Explore Lombardy’s regions like never before, discovering scenery with a remarkably exotic, international feel.

from IN-LOMBARDIA.IT

Set out on these four stages and you will feel like you are travelling the world, even though you have only gone a short distance away, thanks to the surprising hidden beauties that never fail to enchant the people of Lombardy and visitors alike.

 

Valleys, bays with crystal-clear waters, and enchanted woods will show you scenery from another world. Relax and enjoy the wild beauty of Baia del Bogn, stroll through the natural paradise that is the Val di Mello, discover the US trees in Parco dei Taxodi, and dream of the Caribbean on San Biagio Island. If Baia del Bogn and San Biagio Island are popular destinations in the summer season, Parco dei Taxodi and Val di Mello are stunning all year round, when they are shrouded in mist or covered with autumn foliage.

Parco dei Taxodi (BS)
Parco dei Taxodi is a natural oasis that will take you straight into the countryside of North America, and in particular, to the forests of Mississippi. The park is on Lake Iseo, near to the old station, in a reclaimed area that covers some 20,000 square metres, right where the river Oglio meets the lake itself.

Val di Mello (SO)
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.

San Biagio Island (BS)
San Biagio Island, also known as “Isola dei Conigli” [Rabbit Island] is an absolute gem with a real Caribbean feel. What makes the island unique is its rabbit population, even if these are rarely seen now, and the possibility to reach it on foot, thanks to the drop in water levels in the summer.
