PARCO DELLA VALLETTA DEL CORNO
This historic green space, dating back to the 19th century, known as Valletta del Corno, takes its name from the stream that flows through it. It is a rare example of urban biodiversity, important for the city's environmental quality.
It is a living space, where nature continues to thrive, offering refuge to many animal and plant species and opportunities for discovery for those who pass through.
Valletta has recently expanded to over 12 hectares, and new trails and cycle paths totalling over 4 kilometres have been created, as well as small bridges over the Corno stream and spaces suitable for sports, including a skate park and a pump track.
Located in the centre of a depression dug by the Corno torrent, it is mainly enriched by non-native deciduous species which include trees and shrubs worthy of attention such as firs, ash trees, hazel trees and hornbeams.
