wonderful view of the valley below

A peak over two thousand meters high, overlooking the Montecampione plain and the Bassinale valley. On the grassy, rounded summit, a simple cross with two howitzers fixed at its base. It can be reached via various trails, or by following the two main ridges: the southeast (EE) and the northwest (EE+, which also features a small equipped cliff mid-ridge). From the summit, you can enjoy a splendid panorama wherever you turn, surrounded by imposing mountain ranges at the four cardinal points, as well as the upper part of Lake Sebino, the Camonica Valley, and the Trompia Valley. With a particularly trained eye, you can see: to the north the Orobie mountain range and at first sight the Presolana (you can also glimpse the snow-capped Bernina), to the east the Adamello massif and the Brenta Dolomites, to the south the mountains of the Maniva mountain range, to the west the Monte Guglielmo group.

Spectacular 360° view

The Nicchia di San Glisente, located at around 2,000 meters above sea level in Val Camonica, is more than a sanctuary: it is an ancient testimony of worship. Originally dedicated to a pastoral deity, the word "San Glisente" reflects the local tradition of naming sacred places, not just saints. This place, overlooking Berzo and Esine, stands on an artificial cave, a sign of a previous pagan cult site. A bridge between hell, earth and sky.

This is the Passo delle Sette Crocette! An ancient road between the upper Val Trompia and Val Grigna, with a dry stone wall and seven iron crosses. A 1688 cippus adds to the historic charm. Legends tell of witchcraft and mountain piety linked to tragic events. A fascinating place steeped in history and mystery.

The legend of San Glisente tells of a valiant count of Charlemagne's army who retired as a hermit on a mountain near Berzo, where he died in 796. With his brothers, San Fermo and San Cristina, he dedicated himself to hermitage in various mountains in the area. Legend describes him as a defender of peoples, a man of faith, hope and love. The sanctuary of San Glisente, on the top of the mountain, is a magical place of profound spirituality, as is the Nicchia.

The Val Grigna Regional Forest covers an area of 2,847.50 hectares, located in the municipalities of Berzo Inferiore, Bienno, Bovegno, Esine and Gianico. It extends from an altitude of 1,000 meters to the summit of Monte Crestoso, which reaches 2,207 metres. The landscape of the area is characterized by spruce fir and larch woods, interspersed with large clearings used as pastures. Much of the forest is in Valle Camonica, but a significant portion of the south-facing pastures extend beyond the watershed, into Valle Trompia. Inside the Forest there are numerous structures, originally linked to alpine farming and cattle grazing. Over time, many of these structures have been restructured to continue to perform their function, while others have been transformed into bivouacs, refuges, agritourisms, environmental education centers and ethnographic museums. Access to the Forest and to the alpine pastures is through some forest roads, but the internal connections are mainly pedestrian, through ancient paths which today also offer considerable excursion interest. Furthermore, the area is crossed by long-distance paths, such as the Tre Valli Bresciane path and the Via dei Silter, which connect the pastures of the Vasta Valgrigna area in a fascinating trek. Hunting is prohibited in the regional forests, but it is possible to spot deer, chamois and black grouse for those with good eyesight or a bit of luck.
