Get to Know Caprino Veronese

Caprino Veronese sits at the foot of Mount Baldo, a lovely village that has served as a central meeting point between Lake Garda and Verona for centuries. Set in the hills between the vineyards of Valpolicella and the slopes of Lessinia, Caprino Veronese has smoothly integrated its long history into modern-day life: Walk Caprino Veronese’s narrow cobbled streets in its historic center filled with traditional stone houses and visit the weekly farmers market in the central square, which has been selling fresh produce from local growers for as long as anyone can remember. The area has many cycling and hiking trails, including the famous path from Ferrara di Monte Baldo to Santuario Madonna della Corona. This remote church, a tourist destination for centuries, is built into the cliffside of Mount Baldo, appearing suspended between Heaven and Earth.

Living in Veneto

The Veneto region is most well-known for its famous capital, Venice. But this large northeastern region that stretches from the River Po all the way to the Italian-Austrian border is much more than just Venice, boasting a bevy of microclimates. Here, you’ll find temperate towns along the shores of Lake Garda, Alpine villages on the slopes of Mount Baldo, beaches along the Adriatic Sea, and inland, long stretches of rolling hills of vineyards that produce some of the best wines in the country. It’s also home to Verona, Treviso, and Padua, cities bursting with history and culture. Though Veneto has adapted itself to modern times — including serving as home to many of Italy’s major amusement parks — its history is always close at hand, with ancient villas and cobblestone streets leading to family farms that produce the region’s famed Lake Garda olive oil and Prosecco wines.
