Hiking
The Sanguigno Valley is one of the wildest and most fascinating valleys in the Bergamo Orobie mountains, located above Valgoglio (BG). Known as the "valley of water" for its abundance of waterfalls, pools, and peat bogs, it is considered the oasis with the highest biodiversity in the Orobie Park.
🌿 Main features
Unique biodiversity: the valley is home to rare habitats such as extensive peat bogs, rhododendrons, pine forests, and endemic plant species.
Origin of the name: "Sanguigno" comes from the reddish hues the vegetation takes on in autumn, making the landscape particularly evocative.
