Valdimagnino Museum of Amagno

    The Ethnographic Museum offers a fascinating retrospective on the history and culture of the Imagna Valley, through the careful preservation of the equipment and items used daily by the local master artisans, the care with which the environments are replicated, and the direct contact with the tools of the time that take visitors back centuries in time, when people sat by the rows of vines to weave their garments in front of the crackling of the fireplace. Admission to this small treasure of the valley's historical memory is free of charge, but a free donation is always recommended to support the activities of the volunteers. Besides the museum, it is also pleasant to spend a few hours wandering around the streets of Strozza.  (Ph: museovaldimagnino.it)

Monte Aga

Lasciata l’auto a Carona si raggiunge con comoda strada il rifugio Longo (possibilità di navetta) da cui, passando vicino al bellissimo lago del Diavolo, ci si porta al passo della Cigola. Da qui l’evidente cresta conduce salendo verso destra alla panoramica cima del monte Aga: la vista spazia a 360°, dal Bernina a tutte le cime della conca del Calvi!Per la discesa è possibile ora continuando sulla cresta opposta a quella di salita che, con qualche passo di facile arrampicata, porta verso il passo Selletta (raggiungibile comodamente anche dal Longo, per quanti volessero evitare la cima). Piegando verso il rifugio Calvi ci si addentra in un pianoro disseminato di massi su cui, aggirandosi e cercando i più grossi e lisci di loro, è possibile ammirare le incisioni rupestri. Alcune di esse risalgono ai celti, che consideravano le sorgenti del Brembo un luogo sacro. L’abitudine ad incidere una propria traccia nei blocchi è continuata però nei secoli, camminando pochi passi è quindi possibile passare da disegni ottocenteschi a incisioni medievali!

Rosso Bronzone in Vigolo

Here we are in front of the Vigolo Church, ready to discover another incredible local creation: Rosso Bronzone.  Lake Iseo may be best known as the home of the famous native Franciacorta DOCG wine, but Rosso Bronzone has a special history all its own.  This wine is born from small vineyards run by passionate winemakers who, having embraced the unique microclimate created by the mountain breeze, the sun's rays and the temperate lake air, are able to produce a wine with unique aromas, fragrances and flavours. Created using traditional old vine farming systems, such as pergolas on small terraces, Rosso Bronzone is a taste of history and the perfect companion for meat dishes, cured meats and cheese.
