Parco dei Colli di Bergamo

The park spans 47 square kilometers across ten municipalities, extending from Bergamo city limits to the Bergamasque Alps and Prealps in northern Lombardy.

Established in 1977 as Lombardy's third regional park, following Ticino and Groane parks, with an expansion of protected territories implemented in 2007.

The Road of the Benedictine Monasteries connects four medieval abbeys through the Astino and Valmarina valleys, documenting religious settlements since 1070.

Visitors can access 40 kilometers of marked trails connecting Città Alta to Canto Alto peak, with elevation ranges from 244 to 1146 meters.

The park houses 5000 species, including 400 plant varieties, 40 mammals, and numerous birds across its sedimentary terrain formed during the Triassic period.
