On the mountains that framed Torri del Benaco and Lake Garda, the typical vegetation is characterised by the rich presence of chestnut trees.
In this time of the year, the chestnut ripens and the village of San Zeno di Montagna, situated in the hills just 10 kms from Torri del Benaco, celebrates it with a special event.
The „Festa delle Castagne“ (Chestnuts Festival) is on program on 21st , 22nd, 28th and 29th October and on 1st, 4th and 5th November.
The event includes gastronomic stands, where you can taste local specialties based on chestnut, concerts and live music, exhibitions and a special market whose booths offer chestnuts, of course, and other local products.

Besides the events planned in the town centre, I recommend you to have dinner in some restaurants of the town, that offer special chestnut menues, from appetizers until dessert. Here are the restaurants that partecipate in the initiative:
– Ristorante al Cacciatore
– Ristorante Sole
– Ristorante Costabella
– Ristorante Bellavista
– Taverna Kus
More info about prices and menues: http://www.ristosanzeno.it/

Cheers to chestnuts!

I would like to inform you about a nice event that will take place on Sunday 17th September in Torri del Benaco: the Benaco Run.

It deals with the second edition of this non-competitive foot race on the hills around lake Garda.

Meeting Point is at the Castle Park at 7.00 am. Departure at 8.30. (subscriptions are open until 8.00)

You can choose among 3 tracks of different length: 7km, 14 km or 21 km.

The shortest tour, 7 km long, suits for people of every age, and also for families with children and strollers,

while the longer ones are recommended for more trained people.

Anyway all of them, from the easiest to the more challenging, will get you along nice paths in the nature, with amazing views of the Lake.

Finally, we remind you that the Benaco Run is dog friendly: our four-legged friends are welcome! :)

The famous championship “Bandiera del lago” involves all the villages of the Lake.

And tonight, 12th August, the competition takes place in Torri del Benaco.

 

To close the event, at 11.00 pm, the spectacular firework show on the Lake.
