Parco Spina Verde di Como



The Parco Regionale Spina Verde is a regional natural park in Lombardy, northern Italy. It covers a hill ridge overlooking the town of Como, and borders on its northern side with Switzerland. It is in the town territory of Como (east) and the nearby municipalities of Colverde (west) and San Fermo della Battaglia (south). It was established in 1993 by a Regional Act (L. R. n. 10/1993) and is administered by the Region of Lombardy. It takes its name from the elevated ridge upon which it stretches, called Spina Verde (green thorn). The park administration is in Villa Imbonati, in San Fermo della Battaglia.
