Torbiere and Madonna del Corno Trail

Starting location is Provaglio. View it here.

This 5.6 km circular route initiates at the Provaglio/Timoline train station, departing from the "Il Viandante" hub. The first segment follows the perimeter of the Torbiere del Sebino, a protected wetland, on a flat and stable path. This leads directly to the Monastery of San Pietro in Lamosa, an 11th-century Cluniac Romanesque complex that serves as a primary historical landmark of the Franciacorta region.

From the monastery, the route transits through the urban center of Provaglio d'Iseo before beginning the main ascent. The trail climbs a vertical gain of 263 meters to reach the Madonna del Corno sanctuary. This vantage point offers a 180-degree technical view of the Lake Iseo basin, the peat bog ecosystem, and the Franciacorta viticultural area. The return leg utilizes a secondary descent path to diversify the terrain and concludes back at the starting point for a tasting of regional Franciacorta wines.
