Valdidentro

The landscape around Valdidentro is a high-Alpine valley of conifer woods, pastures and steep slopes, which has shaped both the scattered settlement pattern and a tourism-based local economy. The municipality occupies part of Alta Valtellina beside the Frodolfo, a tributary of the Adda, and lies near the Swiss border and Stelvio National Park. Above the valley, the Cancano and San Giacomo di Fraele reservoirs provide an open contrast to the narrower valley floor. The Torri di Fraele, two stone towers above the reservoirs, recall the strategic importance of mountain routes between Valtellina and the Engadin. Skiing, cycling and hiking link Valdidentro closely with the Bormio area. Find related webcams in Alta Valtellina to build a fuller picture of this Lombardy mountain region.
