On Saturday, 26 September and Sunday, 27 September 2026, from 11:00 am to 8:00 pm, the historic centre of Malcesine will host a new edition of Ciottolando con Gusto, returning this year with the exciting new Tasty Hunter format.
The village will become a food and wine trail featuring 19 tasting stops, where visitors can savour signature dishes prepared by participating restaurants, paired with a selection of local wines. With the official tasting passport, guests can enjoy a true flavour hunt, collecting a stamp at each stop while discovering the most charming corners of Malcesine.
The biggest novelty of this edition is the Ciottolo d'Oro (Golden Pebble Award). Participants will have the opportunity to rate each venue based on four criteria—dish, authenticity, hospitality, and location—helping to decide the winner of this new and prestigious award.
To make the experience even more memorable, visitors will also enjoy free admission to Malcesine Castle (Castello Scaligero), live music, relaxing lounge areas, and the breathtaking views of Lake Garda.
Our restaurant will also be part of Ciottolando con Gusto 2026, and we look forward to welcoming you along the route to taste one of the signature dishes that best represents our cuisine and our passion for local ingredients. It will be the perfect opportunity to meet us and share one of the most delicious weekends of the year together.
How to take part
To enjoy the full Ciottolando con Gusto 2026 experience, you will need to purchase the official tasting passport, which gives you access to all 19 stops along the food and wine trail.
