Capture the Sunset over Illasi

Illasi, Italy

Description

Capture the perfect combination of vibrant color and Italian vineyards!

Illasi is the perfect place to take pictures of the beautiful Italian sunset as you'll be able to get vast vineyards and olive groves in each shot. This small town is also tucked between two ridges, so you'll be able to climb up one ridge to get gorgeous shots of the sun setting over the other!

This area is very well known for its wine, olive oil, cheese, and snack meats, so be sure to check out some of the local restaurants while you're in the area!

Explore the Castello Di Illasi

Before you get your hopes up too much, I do need to disclose that the castle grounds are barbed-wire fenced and off limits. Hence why this adventure is focused on photographing the castle, not exploring it. The castle was originally built to control the valley floor paths running in the area, with the more popular castle in Soave also supporting this endeavor. You can get some great pictures f...

Tour the Trabucchi D'Illasi Winery

Tours are offered in English or Italian, and a wine tasting is included. You can chose between 3 or 5 wines, and for an additional fee they offer local salami and cheese to accompany your tasting. Overall the price is very affordable considering you get to experience the whole process and have a few glasses of wine at the end, including a glass of their most expensive (100 euro) bottle. Their...

Climb Monte Garzon and Ring the Bell

Start your adventure by parking along the road or by the church. Head north up what initially looks like a driveway, though you'll want to stay to the right and follow the path. From there keep following the path straight, and when in doubt follow the red/white blazes or the signs for the cross (croce). The path is fairly wide, and you may have to share it with bikers at times since this is jus...

Hike or Bike La Vecia Via della Lana

La Vecia Via della Lana translates to "the Old Way of the Wool" which pretty much explains why the path was created. It was once a route that shepherds would use to transport livestock and goods from town to town. In modern times, the path is used for biking and hiking tourism. It spans from Soave to Selva di Progno, reaching just under the 50km mark. It is mostly 2-3 meter wide paved or gravel...

Explore Verona Arena

This is one of the best preserved structures of its kind. Originally used for gladiatorial battles, jousts, and circuses, the arena is still in use today but hosts slightly different events. There are mainly operas and concerts held here now, but in 2026 there will be a Winter Olympics closing ceremony! Guided tours are available if you plan far enough ahead, or you could attend one of the many...

Explore Monte Baldo

The Malcesine Funicular Cableway is the easiest and most direct way to get to the top of Monte Baldo. Monte Baldo is located in the region of Lake Garda, about a 2 hour bus ride from Verona, Italy. Once at the funicular, purchase your tickets and take the funicular up! You'll transfer to a second cablecar about halfway up the mountain. Be sure to look around as you ascend the mountain, the cab...
