Our mountain flat (2 rooms plus one bathroom, good for 4 people) is at the second floor in the historic centre of Ponte di Legno. From there you can go on foot in 5 minutes in the mountain environment of trees and mountain view and leave for many excursions, other excursions are available by car. Anyway I begin to give you some ideas about possible destination of tour trip from Ponte di Legno: First of all you can have many kind of mountain excursions: observations of wild animals as marmots, chamois, eagles…, visiting forts and trenches rests of the first world war ( in Temù there is a small museum of the White War in the glaciers of Adamello) , reaching snow and glaciers…. If you want to drive some more you can visit the Park of rock engravings in val Camonica ( one of the most important prehistoric archaeologist site in Europe), the Iseo lake with Montisola (the largest lake island in Europe, very beautiful and empty of cars), very interesting are art attractions as Romanic churches (Capo di Ponte) and Romanino’s frescos (Pisogne). You can reach even Livigno that is a duty free tourist area close to Switzerland.
