Lombardy it is among the largest regions of Italy. A fascinating land rich in history, where nature, art and innovation blend harmoniously. The region of great alpine peaks, glaciers, natural parks, the lowlands Po Valley and above all of the great lakes. The Stelvio National Park, which Lombardi shares with some of the neighboring regions, guards luxuriant forests and rare species of plants and animals.

The Alps

Valcamonica, Valtellina and Valchiavenna they make up the Alpine chain that embraces Lombardy, donating water and regulating its climate. A labyrinth of joints, walls and ridges that emerge beyond the 3500 meters, give unique emotions to winter sports enthusiasts. This is also thanks to the modern equipment, located in the localities of the Tonale and Bormio.

The lakes

Typical and numerous are the lakes that shore up this region. Like Lake Garda, full of history and charm. Here stands one of the most characteristic towns of the Brescia side, Sirmione. With its regenerating spas it guarantees magical stays of relaxation. We then find the famous Lake Como. Magical Manzonian scenography of the betrothed, with its enchanting villages and magnificent landscapes. Finally we find the Lake Maggiore, surrounded by parks and noble villas. From the banks of the Iseo lake, along the hilly slopes and the gentle terraces outlined by vines and vineyards, you arrive at lands of Franciacorta, one of the most renowned places for the production of wines and sparkling wines.

The Po

Undisputed Prince of Lombardy is the Po, the river that crosses these open horizons, creating ponds and irrigating the rows of poplars at the edge of the huge rice fields. Here stands, between folklore and tradition, castles and hydraulic works, the famous lomellina, land of the mondine of the past.

Milan

Capital of the region, as well as the capital of Italian fashion, it is Milan. This city preserves the memory of the past which merges with the economic and industrial reality. Its Cathedral with the elegant spiers that stand out towards the sky, decorated with over three thousand statues, it is the symbol.
