THE COLD VALLEY
 

Is located 350to 700 meters above Val Cavallina, between the lago di Gaiano and Monte Glemo. Characteristic of this wide territory of almost 600 meters are the sources of icy air down in the small valley. During the winter large ice blocks are created under the soil. In summer the air passes through these blocks and subsequently the soil comes out at very low temperatures (2-4 degrees). This natural phenomenon creates a microclimate with very particular characteristics like vegetation that is accustomed to mountain climates and flora typical for alpine territories. In fact one finds numerous species like the ‘stella alpina’, the rhododendron, the gentian, the black pine and the larch, at an average height of 400 metres. La Valle del Freddo can be visited in the months of May, June and July, along a constructed path of which it is prohibited to get off. Leaving from Bergamo one can reach the nature reserve by car taking the SS 42 in direction of Lovere-Tonale. After the lago di Endine and lago di Gaiano, after 100 metres you will leave the SS 42 turning to the right on the dirt track. After approximately 10 metres on the right there is a large square, where you can park. From here, following the indications, you’ll reach the entrance of the small valley.
