BioBlitz Parco del Serio

Science becomes exploration

BioBlitz is an environmental education format that turns citizens into explorers and young naturalists for a day. As part of BioBlitz Lombardia, the regional initiative involving Lombardy's protected areas, the Serio Park offers a series of guided excursions, including a stop dedicated to Romano di Lombardia (Province of Bergamo).

The Romano stop

In Romano di Lombardia, the event is an afternoon excursion winding between the Serio river and the G. Longhi Botanical Garden. Accompanied by local walking groups, participants explore the territory, observing, identifying, and cataloging the plant and animal species that inhabit the riverine environment and the botanical garden, thus contributing to the participatory biodiversity census of the park.

A weekend for nature

The BioBlitz of the Serio Park takes place over several days and in various locations in the Bergamo and Crema areas, with excursions dedicated to bats, springs, wild herbs, and riverine environments. The Romano stop is ideally linked to the Spring Festival which, during the same period, enlivens the G. Longhi Botanical Garden with workshops and inclusive activities.

Knowing to protect

Organized by the Serio Regional Park, the BioBlitz is more than just a walk: it is an experience of scientific citizenship that brings the public closer to the issues of biodiversity and environmental protection. A precious opportunity for families and enthusiasts to experience and understand the natural heritage of the Bergamo area.
