ロンコベッロの峡谷・トップ15

The Sanguigno Valley is one of the wildest and most fascinating valleys in the Bergamo Orobie mountains, located above Valgoglio (BG). Known as the "valley of water" for its abundance of waterfalls, pools, and peat bogs, it is considered the oasis with the highest biodiversity in the Orobie Park. 🌿 Main features Unique biodiversity: the valley is home to rare habitats such as extensive peat bogs, rhododendrons, pine forests, and endemic plant species. Origin of the name: "Sanguigno" comes from the reddish hues the vegetation takes on in autumn, making the landscape particularly evocative. Water is the protagonist: the Sanguigno stream cascades down, forming waterfalls and natural pools of green and blue hues. Wild environment: shady forests, bright meadows, crystal-clear lakes, and panoramic ridges create a varied and pristine landscape. 🚶‍♂️ Excursions Access: Start from Valgoglio (929 m), reaching the Aviasco power plant (965 m) where you can leave your car (ticket required). Classic route: The trail runs alongside the stream and leads to the Gianpace Refuge (1330 m), a refreshment point and waterfall observation point. Duration: Approximately 1.5–2 hours of walking, with moderate elevation gain. Alternatives: From Novazza, you can follow trail 232A, which passes through woods and pastures to the refuge. ✨ Why visit it Unspoiled nature: The valley is largely untouched, ideal for those seeking silence and authenticity. Photography and relaxation: The waterfalls and meadows offer spectacular views and picnic spots. Seasons: In spring, it is lush and green, in autumn it turns red and orange, and in summer, it remains cool thanks to the stream.

Wonderful area nestled between the rocky peaks of the surrounding peaks, in particular the Arera and the Corna Piana. The area is mainly rocky, easy to reach even if it requires a minimum of training. The most fascinating aspect is the landscape, you find yourself in a very natural and at times wild environment, where you also have to pay attention to small ravines which are often not immediately visible but equally dangerous! Especially in the presence of snow which masks them further.

Classic itinerary up Mount Cancervo starting from Brembella: it is a path that offers no difficulties whatsoever.

Not difficult climb that crosses the gorge, a route that deserves to be cycled.

A must visit place, obviously by bike.

Beautiful valley that goes up to Pizzo Farno, passing by the ref. Gianpace

It just deserves. Without a why.

GTL-Grand Tour Lombardia also passes from here, from San Giovanni Bianco to Culmine and then descends to Varenna.
