“WINE TREKKING FROM CAREMA TO BORGOFRANCO ON THE VIA FRANCIGENA CANAVESANA”
An experiential trek through vineyards, cliffs, medieval churches and villages on a landscape of great beauty in all seasons of the year.
The day includes stops where we will taste cheeses, taste the wines, get to know the alpine fragrance of the high ground olive oil under the pergolas of the terraces and we will have breakfast in a beautiful hostel converted from an old shop. But above all we will know the stories of these producers who with patience and determination over the centuries have torn the earth from the glacier working it to the fullest.
We will have a pic nic lunch with a selection of typical dishes of the Canavese tradition cooked by an excellent trattoria.
In Borgofranco di Ivrea we will enter a “Balmetto” (typical local cellar), open exclusively for us, where we will have the fascinating experience of touching the “now”: the icy breath of air that comes from the bowels of the mountain (Mombarone) and it has been blowing constantly every second of every day since prehistoric times, keeping the internal temperatures around 8 degrees. It is a very rare phenomenon, which attracts a growing number of visitors every year, and which is visible only in this part of the world.
We conclude with an excellent “merenda sinoira”, tasting a selection of local wines.
The agency’s private shuttle will take you back to the starting point in Ivrea, after having collected any purchases of local products in the various stages during the day.
Start of the day at 7.30 – from Ivrea station – end of the day at 18.00 in Borgofranco di Ivrea
