Prosecco, between nature and culture

Along the Prosecco Road, between an Exhibition and the open wine cellars, let yourself be lulled by the surrounding landscape and its history and culture jewels. We recommend a visit to the historical Abbey of Follina, to Castel Brando in Cison di Valmarino, to  Molinetto della Croda in Refrontolo or to the suggestive Grotte del Caglieron.

On the way from Valdobbiadene to Vittorio Veneto it is possible to visit the Livelet Educational Archaeological Park, to enjoy an unexpected journey through time to discover how our ancestors lived.

This year the Spring of Prosecco also offers “le nostre vie, quattro passi tra i vigneti”(our streets, a walk through the vineyards), a wonderful initiative that includes a series of itineraries to discover the territory on the ancient paths, to reach the most hidden treasures like the Tempietto Spada, Ronch Church and the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Carmine.

PPS is not just a food and wine event.

The goal is in fact to enhance the territory and the products at 360°, this is why this year the Photo Contest and the Journalistic Competition will be presented again, to describe the emotions and sensations of this magnificent event. The Fascetta d'Oro Competition, the first and only Italian competition dedicated to the wines of Conegliano-Valdobbiadene, is a must-attend.

In order to enjoy the territory in a less conventional way, the Prosecco Hills network of companies has provided 3 special packages for an excursion among the hills of Prosecco in an alternative and fun way:

• E-motion e-bike Tour, an excursion with e-bikes or pedal-assisted mountain bikes,
• Adrenaline Vespa Tour, to enjoy the scenery on a Vespa,
• Tasting Food & Wine, an enogastronomic and cultural route suitable for families.
