If you are planning a holiday apartment in Lomaso, you will find church art, a Franciscan monastery, the literary-inspired Parco del Poeta, walking trails and a potato festival here. Parco del Poeta extends across the entire area of Lomaso, which inspired Giovanni Prati to write some of his works. The Sentiero della Patata is an easy, scenic walking trail through the Piana del Lomaso. When choosing your location, it is therefore particularly worth considering whether you would like to include culture, walks and regional events in your stay.
Culture between church, monastery and literature
The Church of Santi Quirico e Giulitta is located in Campo Lomaso. The high altar features the oil painting “Martirio dei Santi Quirico e Giulitta”, dating from 1619–1620. In 1633, the two side altars were dedicated to Saint Francis of Assisi and to Saints Roch and Sebastian (Stenico). The Franciscan monastery of Campo Lomaso has a remarkable covered cloister, a central fountain and an enclosing wall with the typical wayside shrines of the Stations of the Cross. The Franciscans settled in the Lomaso area in 1664, in the newly built monastery next to the old Church of Santi Quirico e Giulitta. The poet Giovanni Prati was born in the Franciscan monastery in 1814. Villa de Lutti has a literary salon that ushered in romantic tourism. In Parco del Poeta, the Franciscan monastery is one of the places associated with Giovanni Prati.
Walking trails through the Piana del Lomaso
The Sentiero della Patata is an easy, scenic walking trail marked with Corten steel signposts. It crosses the Piana del Lomaso between castles, churches, and potato and grain fields. The trail passes through the growing areas of the Montagnina potato, a typical product of the valley. Along the walking trail, you can see the ruins of the Molino dei Zeni beside the Torrente Dal. The route passes an old bridge, probably dating from Roman times and known as the Ponte Romano. Free parking for the walking trail is available in Campo Lomaso near the church.
Stories, events and regional cuisine
In Parco del Poeta, guided walks accompanied by a storyteller are offered under the name “I Viaggi dell’Emozione”. They combine stories, theatrical interludes, poems, melodies and the aromas of bygone eras. The Parco del Poeta calendar includes regular events, especially in summer. Groups can visit the desired tour at any time of year after making a reservation. On the last weekend of October, the Festa della Patata takes place in Campo Lomaso and Dasindo. It combines a gala dinner, a culinary route with several stops, show cooking, activities and meetings with local producers.
