Lizzola: Ski Area, Bike Park and Chiesetta della Manina

When planning your trip, the first thing to consider is which activity you want to shape your stay. The ski area’s elevation range, three trails of varying difficulty in the Bike Park, and a route through woodland and pastureland to the Chiesetta della Manina offer specific points to consider.

Ski Area and Bike Park

The Lizzola ski area extends from 1,250 metres to over 2,000 metres in elevation and has a snowpark. This gives you two distinct aspects to consider when planning your trip: the ski area’s elevation and the snowpark as a dedicated winter sports attraction. Operating conditions may vary by season. If you are planning a stay specifically for the ski area or snowpark, check the latest information for your travel dates in advance.

For cycling, Lizzola has a Bike Park with three trails of varying difficulty. While the ski area’s elevation range provides a specific point of comparison, the Bike Park offers trails with different levels of difficulty. These two aspects can help you choose based on the focus of your trip. Check the operator’s latest information before riding.

Trails and the Chiesetta della Manina

A trail to Passo della Manina passes through a deciduous forest and a hollow used as pasture before reaching the Chiesetta della Manina. The sequence of forest, pasture hollow and chapel gives the hike a clear structure. The chapel is dedicated to the Madonna Pellegrina. Inside are two altars: one faces Valle di Scalve, the other Valle Seriana. This brings together a clearly named religious dedication and an interior arrangement oriented towards both valleys. The Chiesetta was built and blessed on October 10 by Monsignor Adriano Bernareggi, then Bishop of Bergamo. If you are interested in religious buildings, the chapel’s dedication and the orientation of its altars are specific aspects to consider.

Other trails lead to different destinations. The route to Pizzo dei Tre Confini starts at the hotel car parks in Lizzola. CAI trail 306 leads from the hamlet of Lizzola to the Baite di Valbona and continues via Maslana to the area of the Grandi Macigni. Access to this area is only possible during the day. The trails differ in their landmarks: on the route to Passo della Manina, the landscape and chapel shape the way; for Pizzo, the starting point in Lizzola is specified, while the CAI trail passes through several named points. Plan accordingly based on your destination, and note that access to the Grandi Macigni area is restricted to daytime.
