Rugged northern charm

The landscape of northern Italy is a collection of raw natural beauty. Home of the region of Lombardy, metropolitan Milan sits at the foothills of the Alps, and is dotted with stunning glacial lakes. The alpine peaks guard the northern frontiers that face the Swiss mountains. All of nature comes together to create the perfect outdoor playground.

Wild and thriving

The upper parts of Lombardy close to the Swiss border are home to the Rhaetian Alps, as well as the stunning valleys of Val di Mello and Val Masino. The former is known as the Italian Yosemite Valley, a wide and open natural reserve recently opened. Take a wild walk through the alpine wilderness packed with rich flora and fauna, including the eagle, ibex and marmot.
