About Wine Trekking Gourmet

Wine Trekking Gourmet is a roving multi-course lunch that winds along a 5 km loop trail through the terraced vineyards of Cembra and Lisignago, in the heart of the Val di Cembra in Trentino. Walking among dry-stone walls and the warm hues of autumn, participants enjoy a different dish at each stop, prepared by local chefs under the guidance of Michelin-starred chef Alessandro Gilmozzi, paired with mountain wines from the valley presented by a sommelier. The event is part of the Dolo-Vini-Miti festival.

A lunch walk through the vineyards of the Val di Cembra

The Wine Trekking Gourmet is one of the most original experiences in the Trentino food and wine scene: a gourmet lunch served not at a table, but along the trail. The route, a loop of approximately 5 kilometers, crosses the terraced vineyards of Cembra and Lisignago, supported by the characteristic dry-stone walls that define the slopes of the Val di Cembra, in the municipality of Cembra Lisignago (Province of Trento, Trentino-Alto Adige). At each stop, participants pause to savor a different course, from appetizer to dessert, immersed in the warm colors of autumn.

Directed by a Michelin-starred chef

The culinary proposal is coordinated by Michelin-starred chef Alessandro Gilmozzi, owner of the El Molin restaurant in Cavalese, who leads a group of local chefs in preparing the dishes served along the route. Each course is designed to highlight the area's mountain products and is paired with Val di Cembra wines—vertical whites, sparkling wines, and grappas—presented and explained by a sommelier at every stop. It is a way to combine the pleasure of dining with the slow discovery of the landscape.

At the heart of the Dolo-Vini-Miti festival

Wine Trekking Gourmet is one of the flagship events of Dolo-Vini-Miti, the festival dedicated to vertical wines and high-altitude products from the Cembra and Fiemme valleys. The event is a tribute to the heroic viticulture that characterizes these slopes, recognized as a Historic Rural Landscape of Italy. Walking among the terraced rows means experiencing firsthand the effort and beauty of mountain agricultural work passed down from generation to generation.

A territory to be experienced slowly

  • Approx. 5 km loop trail through the vineyards of Cembra and Lisignago
  • Multi-course lunch: appetizer, first course, main course, and dessert served along the way
  • Pairings with wines, sparkling wines, and grappas from the Val di Cembra
  • Staggered departures in multiple time slots starting from late morning
  • Limited spots, advance booking required

The event, organized by the Fiemme and Cembra Tourist Board, combines gentle hiking, wine culture, and haute cuisine in a single day, offering participants a privileged look at one of the most evocative wine landscapes in Trentino.
