A unique itinerary through landscapes, culture, and people
An Invitation to the Journey
We’ve walked far. Together or alone, along well-known trails or silent paths, in Italy and abroad. We’ve followed ancient roads, rediscovered forgotten villages, crossed valleys, mountains, and hills. And every time, we’ve come back home with lighter backpacks… and fuller hearts.
But each time we returned, we said to ourselves: our land deserves a walk too.
Our territory – between Valpolicella and Lessinia – is a tapestry of stories, nature, stone, wine, effort, art, and beauty. There was no need to invent anything: we just had to look at it through the eyes of a walker. With that slowness that turns every step into listening, every encounter into a gift.
And so, step by step, this route was born – not as a path to compete, but as a path to tell, to share, to give back.
We know well that there are extraordinary walks in Italy and beyond – and we love them. But we truly believe that ours too is beautiful, and that it has something real and valuable to offer.
This is our invitation.
The Cammino del Vino e della Pietra is ready.
Now it’s your turn to discover it, walk it, make it yours.
We’ll be waiting. At a slow pace.
