Monte Legnone

Monte Legnone rises to 2609 meters between Valsassina and Valtellina valleys, forming the highest peak of the Bergamo Alps in northern Lombardy.

The mountain has guided travelers between Lake Como and Alpine valleys for centuries, serving as a natural landmark for local communities since ancient times.

Local mountaineering clubs organize regular group ascents to the summit, maintaining the traditional Alpine climbing culture of the Lombardy region.

The climb requires expert hiking skills and proper equipment, with access starting from Rifugio Roccoli Lorla through a marked trail spanning 12 kilometers.

Fixed ropes assist climbers through exposed sections of the path, while Bivacco Silvestri offers shelter at 2146 meters during the ascent.
