Mangialonga: 4k Enogastronomic Walk
Written by admin on 30 August, 2010 – 10:53 pm -
Mangialonga is a 4km walk through the beautiful vineyards of La Morra and the Langhe in Piedmont, North West Italy. En-route are 6 pit-stops to refuel with wine and Piemontese gastronomic delights. With 2000 participants this event took place on Sunday 30 August. Highly recommended, it is one of my finest experiences since moving to Italy five years ago. Eat (and drink) your hearts out!

A day to treasure. 40 euro should ensure the riff-raff are kept out. I suppose it is only the cost of a very good bottle of wine.
