Bernate Ticino (Milanese: Bernaa [berˈnaː], locally Barnaa [barˈnaː]) is a comune (municipality) in the Metropolitan City of Milan , in the northern Italian region of Lombardy , located approximately 25 kilometres (16 mi) west of Milan.

The town is situated on the Ticino River and is traversed by the Naviglio Grande. In 2005, a small Roman necropolis, comprising 12 tombs, was discovered within the territory of Bernate Ticino.

Bernate Ticino is located east of the Ticino River and approximately 30 kilometres west of Milan, the capital of the Metropolitan City of Milan. It shares borders with Cuggiono to the north, via the hamlet of Casate; Mesero to the east; Marcallo con Casone to the south; and Boffalora sopra Ticino to the west, adjoining the Piedmont municipality of Romentino.

The town is divided into two distinct areas: a central-western area, which includes the town centre and features less densely populated settlements along with forested vegetation extending to the Parco del Ticino; and an eastern area, characterised by a higher degree of urbanisation.
