Italy is the undisputed cradle of the genuine and healthy Mediterranean diet and the Liguria region represents one of its strongest Ambassadors.

From trenette al pesto to torta verde, stuffed courgette flowers etc etc... it is an endless list of genuine and mouth watering delicacies.

Hence the original and no doubt successful way to combine walks with amazing food in the well-hidden trattorias of the beautiful Ligurian Interior. they supply gorgeous and just simply amazing food. The menus are called: "Menu’ degustazione" and you just sit back and wait to be served an array of dish after dish of small, delicate portions, cooked for the moment. The tastes are just sensational and represent just what is available on the land at that precise season.

Prices are exceptionally good because of the non-commercial areas these gourmet restaurants are placed in - none are part of large chains. You will often eat in an old converted olive or water mill, or in a beautiful historic building, individually created with flair.

Just come and enjoy a healthy outdoor walk and end the day with an unforgettable meal in a beautiful rustic location in Liguria.

For a small additional charge your guide can take you there to discover these gastronomic hidden jewels.

Buon Appetito!
