On this tour through the Caminhos de Pedra, we will explore an open-air museum focused on Italian immigration in Brazil, combining history, nature, and cuisine in a rural setting.
Caminhos de Pedra Tour
We will meet at 9 am at Rua Duque de Caxias in Bento Gonçalves to begin the tour of the Caminhos de Pedra. This route provides insights into the history of Italian immigration in Brazil and how Italian culture integrated with local traditions, particularly in cattle raising and vineyard cultivation.
Our first visit will be to the Parque da Ovelha, where we will learn about sheep care. Next, we will stop at the historic Cantina Strapazzon, established in the late 19th century, to discover the region's winemaking tradition. This location has also featured in films, including the 1995 Brazilian film O Quatrilho.
The tour will conclude with a visit to Casa Bertarello, a stone house that was lodging for early immigrants. We will then return by bus to Bento Gonçalves, arriving at approximately 1 pm.
