Lugana Tour: from the Red Cross Memorial to the winery

Description

An itinerary on foot through history to discover Lugana, an area linked to wine and important historical events: on this tour, Patrizia will take you on a journey to learn about the morainic hills and the historical significance of these places, through the tasting of its wines.

A slow tourism experience, balanced between culture and oenology: from production to terroir, from method to tasting. The approximately 10 km route proposed by our local wine guide starts from the Red Cross Memorial in Solferino and makes a first stop at Madonna della Scoperta, a hamlet immersed in the countryside, among vineyards, old farmhouses and the church that dominates the area from its privileged position.

The route resumes in country lanes leading you to a family-run wine cellar in the hills of Pozzolengo from where you will enjoy a spectacular view of the Tower of San Martino della Battaglia. Here you will be offered a tasting of three Lugana DOC wines and thus learn about the lesser-known versions of this much-appreciated white wine.

A day dedicated to exploring the resources of the area and the human talents that have shaped its history. Return to the meeting point is by organised transfer.

Clothing and gear and other notes

You should wear hiking shoes with a treaded sole and carry at least one litre of water with you. We recommend: trekking poles and a waterproof jacket in the cold season; hat, sunglasses and sun cream in the summer season.


Level of difficulty

The route is easy and suitable for everyone: 10 km in all with an elevation gain of 100 metres; it is therefore a flat route, on cart tracks and on the road only for a short stretch.
