Lombardy's walled hilltop city, Il Lombardia hub, gateway to the Bergamasque Alps.
Overview
Cycling in Bergamo
Bergamo is the launchpad for the Bergamo Alps, the amphitheatre of climbs that decides Il Lombardia most years — the Colle del Gallo, Selvino and the Passo di Ganda are all within reach. From the medieval Città Alta, roads climb quickly into the Val Seriana and Val Brembana for endless walls and quiet valley loops.
