Description
Join us for a day of pure wellness, exploring the hills of the Valpolicella Classica. This isn't just an hike, but an experience designed for those who want to slow down, connect with nature, and rediscover the authentic flavors of one of Italy's most iconic wine regions. Far from the city chaos, a sensory journey awaits you, filled with breathtaking views, centuries-old traditions, and excellent wines.
The Experience
You will be guided by a professional Environmental Hiking Guide along gentle and panoramic trails, winding through vineyards, olive groves, and ancient hamlets. An easy and relaxing route, designed to let you enjoy every single step and immerse yourself in the beauty of the autumn colors. During the walk, you will have the opportunity to learn the secrets of organic viticulture, the history of this land, and the deep connection between man and the surrounding landscape.
The highlight of the experience will be a visit to Terre di Gnirega, a family-run organic farm. Here, you will meet the producers who will welcome you with passion and tell you their story. You will be able to touch their commitment to sustainability and the love they put into the production of their wines.
The most anticipated moment will be the guided tasting, a unique opportunity to savor four of the most prized organic wines, an authentic expression of the territory:
· Valpolicella DOC
· Valpolicella Ripasso DOC
· Amarone DOCG
· Recioto DOCG
To make the experience even more special, at the end of the day you will receive a pleasant surprise: a voucher worth 50 Cordis, which can be spent in the digital marketplace MarketPass. You will also have the opportunity to buy wines and other products from the producer directly, to take home a piece of Valpolicella.
