10 Things to Do in Valtartano

Written by grace the . Published in articles. No comments on 10 proposals in Valtartano

Our 10 recommendations in the Valley

Spring – Summer – Fall

CAMPO’s ideal location—the first village you come to as you head up into the Valtartano—makes it a destination for pleasant and picturesque hikes, allowing visitors to explore lesser-known trails at the valley’s entrance.

In fact, the village is a natural panoramic terrace offering a view of the entire lower Valtellina and the southern end of Lake Como.

Let’s take a look at the activities this beautiful valley has to offer.

  • Frasnino Park

    1. FRASNINO PARK – BIRDWATCHING

    Just past the bridge is PARCO FRASNINO, a free public park with a shelter and restroom, a photo exhibition of the bridge construction, an exhibition of rural architecture models, bàait-1877 (a restored mountain hut), and a with rest areas, picnic spots, large wooden tables, and benches , meadows, and the starting point for easy and challenging trails of varying lengths difficulty + Crotto Frasnino (consortium kiosk).

    Please note:

    1) Birdwatching, observing birdlife from a vantage point above the mountain huts.

    2) A loop that leads down to the Arched Dam (eastbound) or, alternatively, to the Old Frasnino Bridge (westbound), with a return hike up to the village (on easy trails, but with some exposed sections—please exercise caution).
