On August 1st, the highlands come alive for the Traditional Podestaria Festival, an event that honors the ancient bond between the local community and its land. Set within the tranquil landscapes of Bosco Chiesanuova, visitors are invited to reconnect with pastoral heritage, a theme central to any Lessinia Tour that seeks to uncover the authentic soul of these peaks.
The morning begins with the arrival of the livestock, followed by a solemn mass in the local church. The spirit of the celebration culminates in the appointment of the ‘Bacan della Lessinia’, a symbolic figure of mountain culture, and the livestock exhibition awards that highlight local excellence. Educational sessions on the vital role of bees will also be held throughout the day, offering insights into the delicate balance of nature.
