Ponte di Legno translates into English as "wooden bridge" and there is indeed, a pretty, covered wooden bridge adorned with flowers that spans a waterway in the town centre. A very short walk south of the town centre brings you to a smaller, concrete bridge running along an east-west axis. Everything to the west of the concrete bridge is the River Oglio and everything to the east is the Narcanaello Stream (Torrente Narcanello).
