Festa della Trota - Sagra di Molino di Altissimo

The Festa della Trota at Molino di Altissimo is an unmissable experience for food enthusiasts and lovers of Venetian gastronomic traditions. Held throughout June at Campo sportivo in Via Garavoglia, this event celebrates one of the most prized products of the Alta Valle del Chiampo: trout with a Denominazione Comunale di Origine (Municipal Origin Certification). This prestigious designation guarantees excellence and authenticity, reflecting a heritage deeply rooted in local history and culture, with superior quality assured by the habitat's unique characteristics and traditional production techniques. Every evening from 7 PM onwards, the festival's food and wine stands invite you on a fascinating journey through trout in all its forms. From crispy crostini to delicate fillets, from avanotti—the irresistible fried young trout—to gnocchi and pasta dressed with refined trout sauce, grilled trout and smoked varieties: each dish tells the story of the territory's culinary passion and expertise. This sensory experience transcends mere tasting, becoming a celebration of biodiversity and the sustainability of Venetian fish farming. An entire month dedicated to conviviality, where gastronomy merges with live music, cultural performances and social gatherings, creating an authentic and welcoming atmosphere. The Festa della Trota offers not just the chance to savour culinary excellence at accessible prices, but also an opportunity to discover and appreciate local products, meet producers and understand how tradition shapes the cultural and gastronomic identity of the Veneto. **Practical Details:** Entrance is free and open to all. Food stands offer varied menus suited to every taste, with dishes available at moderate prices (€8 to €18 for main specialities). We recommend arriving by car, as ample free parking is available at Campo sportivo.
