The geomorphology of the centraI sector of the Italian Alps has many interesting aspects. Some of these are: the relationship between the morphology of the territory and the geological structure; the morphology modelled by glaciers; the morphological evidences of neo-tectonics and the great landslides, which are typical of an alpine environment. The itinerary of this field trip will allow us to observe several of these aspects, travelling by coach, ferry, chair-lift and walking. During the first day we will be travelling from Milano to Como and will cross the end-moraine system of Lake Como; then we will be travelling by ferry on Lake Como from Como to Colico. After this we will follow the Valtellina, one of the main valleys of the Italian Alps. During the second day, travelling by jeep and walking, we will visit some of the glaciers of the Ortles-Cevedale Group and their Late Glacial and Holocenic moraine systems. During the third and fourth days, moving from Valtellina to Valcamonica, we will examine the glacial geomorphology of the tonalitic massif of the Adamello.

On the sixth day, travelling by boat, we will observe the raised beaches and the lake levels of Lake Garda. Finally, during the seventh day we will cross the end-moraine system of Lake Garda and the Po plain and, passing through Mantova, we will arrive in Bologna for the Conference
