Gaminella and the Suspended Steps

Among the Moscato vineyards and Pavese’s hills: nature, footsteps, and flavors.

An excursion through the colors of early autumn, the settings of “The Moon and the Bonfires,” and the flavors of a langarola merenda at a farmhouse.

The route

Our walk begins in the morning, when the sun starts to warm the Gaminella hillside and the dry-stone walls release into the air a balmy aroma of rosemary and autumn fruits.

We climb the Gaminella hill accompanied by immense panoramas that sweep as far as the eye can see across all the surrounding hills.

Once we reach the summit, our gaze opens onto infinite horizons before we begin the return journey, immersed in the fragrant, restorative shade of the woods, completing a loop of pure beauty.

An unmissable excursion designed to unite the beauty of the landscape with the literary history of the territory.

For those who wish, the day will conclude in the spirit of Langhe hospitality at an agriturismo nestled among the vineyards, with a delicious traditional afternoon tasting to share the day’s most beautiful moments together.

Menu and costs to be confirmed.
