Oltrepò means “ beyond the Po”, Italy’s longest river.
This area lays just 30 miles (50 km) south of Milan, where several ancient vineyards cover its gentle hills.
Going further south you can reach higher altitudes, the Appennino Lombardo.
On a clear day, walking on trails along the highest ridges, you can see the Mediterranean sea.
This region has few old villages, ancient fortresses and Castles, witnesses of the past. They are not popular destinations yet. That’s why we consider the Oltrepò Pavese one of the best kept secret next to Milan.
We will depart from your hotel in Milan (or in the surroundings) with our private driver/ guide.
Our first visit will be in S. Alberto di Butrio where important and famous medieval heroes stop in the past. We proceed for a quick stop at the Oramala castle and then to Varzi, in the heart of Valle Staffora, for our lunch (included). Varzi is home of one of the best salami in Italy.
In the afternoon we will move towards the village of Zavattarello and its ancient castle. We will then have a short walk in Fortunago, listed as one of the “Borghi più belli d’Italia” (Italian most beautiful villages).
Our afternoon continues with a wine tasting in one of the most traditional cellar of the area.
Return to Milan before dinner time.
