Discover the Grigna Settentrionale Park with an expert Nature and Walking Guide. Learn about spontaneous flora and its many uses. An immersive experience, where we will learn to recognise the plants and flowers that characterise the Lecco mountains, exploring the properties of these herbs in cooking, in cosmetics and in herbal medicine.
At the end of the tour, for those who want, a tasting of dairy products awaits us at Carozzi Formaggi (a dairy farm in the Valsassina valley), which will reserve an exclusive table for our group of ‘botanists’, and will allow us to have an authentic taste of mountain flavours.
In the afternoon, through interactive workshops, we will discover the world of essential oils, beauty creams and healing ointments, as well as herbal teas, infusions and decoctions made from wild plants.
A journey through nature, tradition and wellness, to unfold the secrets that the plant world holds.
