Food and wine event

Ciottolando con Gusto 2026 - Tasty Hunter - The new edition of the flavor trail is renewed with a new format in an immersive experience exploring the gastronomic soul of Malcesine.


More than a gastronomic event. More than a tasting....

Ciottolando con Gusto is an adventure to experience, savor, and remember.

On September 26 and 27, 2026, the historic center of Malcesine transforms into an immersive path with the new formula Tasty Hunter: an engaging hunt for flavors through alleys, squares, and unique vistas of the village.

With the Carnet of the Tasty Hunter and the event map, participants can explore 19 gastronomic stops, tasting dishes created by local restaurants and paired with a selection of local wines. Each tasting tells the story of the excellences of Lake Garda, from lake fish to Malcesine oil, from herbs of Monte Baldo to Garda DOC and Valpolicella wines.

The route also includes entrance to the Scaligeri Castle, experiential areas with music and moments of relaxation, as well as the opportunity to collect a stamp at each stop and vote for their favorites. It will indeed be the visitors who award the Ciottolo d'Oro 2026, the prize for the best venue and the best dish of the event.

Explore. Taste. Stamp. Vote. Become a Tasty Hunter too!
