The Val Taleggio (Lombard: Val Taegg) is an Alpine valley in the Italian region of Lombardy, split between the provinces of Bergamo and Lecco. It is a western fork of the Val Brembana which begins in the commune of San Giovanni Bianco, in the Province of Bergamo.
The valley's river is the Enna which over the course of the centuries has gouged out a spectacular 3 km gorge between San Giovanni Bianco and Taleggio known as the Orrido della Val Taleggio (pictured, right). The valley is particularly known for the soft cows’ milk cheese Taleggio which has been made here for many centuries.
The Val Taleggio comprises three communes:
1) Taleggio (Province of Bergamo), with the frazioni Sottochiesa (the seat of the Municipio), Peghera, Olda, and Pizzino;
2) Vedeseta (Province of Bergamo), with the frazioni Avolasio, Lavina, and Reggetto.
3) Morterone (Province of Lecco).
