The parco della Brughiera Briantea is situated in Lombardy, between the province of Milano and of Como, in the territories of the municipalities of Cabiate, Lentate sul Seveso, Meda, Mariano Comense, Carimate, Cermenate, Novedrate, Figino Serenza, Carugo and Brenna. The territory of the Parco della Brughiera is one of the first areas covered almost only with forests and meadows which develops far from Milano northwards among deeply urbanized area. Therefore these ecosystems situated in those areas safe from the strong urban expansion of the last decades represent the last shelter for animal and plant species inhabiting the forests.
