In previous summer seasons, there were peaks of over 3,000 visitors per day: it’s easy to see how overcrowding can pose a threat to the safety of hikers and the natural balance of the valley. For this reason, access is now regulated with a maximum daily entry limit.
From May to October, on holidays, pre‑holidays, and throughout the month of August, an entrance ticket (available exclusively online) is required to access Valle Vertova.
From April 11, only authorized vehicles and residents of Valle Vertova will be allowed to enter.
The Vertova Valley is an officially registered hiking trail within the Hiking Network of the Lombardy Region, pursuant to Regional Law No. 5 of February 27, 2017.
It is therefore recommended to undertake the route with appropriate equipment, in compliance with safety regulations and according to one’s physical abilities.
Due to high tourist demand, the shuttle bus service will now also run on Saturdays throughout September.
The service will operate every Saturday and Sunday this month.
