Cimone della Bagozza, Mountain summit in Lombardy, Italy
Cimone della Bagozza is a mountain summit in the Bergamo Alps reaching 2,407 meters with steep slopes and exposed rocky sections. The terrain transitions from forested lower elevations to open alpine grassland as you gain height.
Local shepherds have used the mountain for centuries, moving their herds to the high meadows during summer months. This long tradition of pastoral use shaped the open grassland landscape that remains visible today.
The mountain name reflects the linguistic heritage of northern Italy, combining Latin roots with regional dialect influences from the Lombardy area.
Several hiking routes reach the summit from different trailheads, with the eastern path taking around four hours of steady climbing. Proper footwear and weather-appropriate clothing are essential as conditions can change quickly at higher elevations.
From the summit, visitors can view both the Concarena massif and the Val di Scalve valley at the same time from a single vantage point. This dual perspective reveals the varied geography of the Bergamo Alps from one location.
