too many people! once it was an oasis of peace

Beautiful 2 hour walk, the first part, walking on a very wide, shaded road, talking alongside friends

The entire first part, lasting approximately 1 hour, is a gentle climb, for a walk with friends, exchanging a chat, on a very wide, shaded path that runs alongside the stream. The second part begins to climb, becoming a narrow and quite steep path, but to be done without any problem. The third part is a classic steep and narrow path, to reach the bivouac at the top, which however I did not do

At the beginning of the 20th century, when the letter "I" was between two vowels, for example two "Os", it was transformed into "Js", hence the name Bojone, equivalent to Boione. The origin of the name itself seems to date back to the "boiling" in the "BOI" dialect of the water which, flowing from below into the spring, produced large air bubbles.

The Rio Bojone, a tributary of the Brembo, is registered in the register of irrigation courses of the Lombardy Region with various names: Rio Borlezza, Boione, Borlesca, Bujone, Bagione or Bertesca (in any case to be confused with the Borlezza stream in Val Seriana).

The source of the Rio Bojone, in addition to feeding the municipal aqueduct of San Pellegrino, generates a notable quantity of waterfalls and rapids along the riverbed of its route. The aquatic spectacle and the pleasant sound generated by the flow of water along the small rapids is truly satisfying.
