Concarena, Mountain summit in Lombardy, Italy
Concarena is a mountain massif in the Southern Limestone Alps featuring several peaks, with Cima della Bacchetta as the highest point. The range rises prominently above the surrounding valleys and forms a significant ridge system in the Lombardy region.
The mountain formed during the Triassic period from limestone deposits laid down millions of years ago. This geological history shaped the structure and composition of the massif we see today.
The mountain stands between Val Camonica and Valle di Scalve regions, marking traditional boundaries between the provinces of Brescia and Bergamo.
Hiking trails access the summit from several starting points scattered across the surrounding valleys. Spring and summer provide the most comfortable conditions, though good footwear and navigation tools are important for all seasons.
The massif includes several peaks above 2000 meters and sits at the border between Brescia and Bergamo provinces. This boundary location gives the range geographical significance as a natural dividing line in the Alpine landscape.
