Gordona

The landscape around Gordona is defined by steep, wooded Alpine slopes and the floor of Valchiavenna, which have shaped both the settlement’s linear form and its links with mountain farming. The Boggia torrent descends from Valle Bodengo before joining the Mera in the valley below, placing the village in the watershed that continues south towards Lake Como. Gordona lies in northern Lombardy, near the Swiss border and the historic routes over the Splügen Pass. Stone houses, the parish church of San Martino and Valchiavenna’s crotti—cool natural cellars traditionally used for food and wine—reflect enduring local customs.
