"Staying at Chichibbio means being in the beating heart of Valcamonica, in a strategic position between Braone and Breno that combines relaxation, sport, and culture in every season.
Fishing and Pristine Waters: Our property is a prime destination for sport fishing enthusiasts. The area is crossed by the Oglio River and its tributaries, but the real highlight is the Palobbia Stream, which flows right through the municipality of Braone. Famous for its high-quality, crystal-clear waters, the Palobbia is a favorite spot not only for fishermen but also for hikers and swimmers looking for untouched nature and cool relief during the summer.
Mineralogy and Geology: Dosso degli Areti: For science and collecting enthusiasts, Dosso degli Areti in Braone is a world-renowned site. Its historic quarry and outcrops are famous among mineralogists worldwide for rare crystals linked to the Adamello contact metamorphism.
