The Lo Presti 'ndrina of Bardonecchia is a clan of the 'Ndrangheta, a mafia-type organization in Calabria, Italy.

The Lo Presti 'ndrina is originally from Marina di Gioiosa Ionica in Calabria with its criminal base in Bardonecchia in Piedmont, North Italy. The Lo Presti are closely related to the Mazzaferro 'ndrina.

The infiltration of the Lo Presti family in the public administration led in 1995 the President of the Italian Republic to dissolve the municipal council of Bardonecchia, giving the alpine town the sad record of first and only municipality in Northern Italy dissolved for alleged mafia infiltrations.

According to a justice witness, in recent years, the relationship with the Mazzaferro cousins has cracked and Lo Presti has approached and allied with the Aquino family, rivals of the Mazzaferro clan. The family is currently governed by the nephews of Rocco Lo Presti, the brothers Luciano and Giuseppe Ursino.
