Forni Valley Road

Valley of the Forni, the glaciers of Alta Valtellina

Land of glaciers. When the Stelvio National Park plays its ace and surprises with glaciers and incredible landscapes from overwhelming nature.

The Forni Valley has been shaped over the centuries by the glacier of the same name, the Forni Glacier. It is the largest valley glacier in Italy and also the second largest in absolute terms.

Curiosity

The name, seemingly contradictory, comes from the historical presence of furnaces for iron smelting, which have now disappeared.
