Parma Hillside Food Trail

Parmigiano Reggiano, Parma Ham and Castle Private Tour & Tasting
Don’t just visit the Parma hillside, taste it!

We will explore picture-postcard villages, vine-planted hillsides, rolling countryside and lots more. Emilia Romagna is truly stunning! History, art, and legend form the perfect blend of adventure in the Parma hillside.

We are passionate about local food heritage, its artisan-producers’ stories and the skill and innovation of its chefs. Parma hillside food trail is a mouthwatering showcase of artisan producers and foodies throughout the Parma hillside.

We will visit a Parmigiano Reggiano cheese dairy during the production process and witness all the stages, side by side with the master cheesemaker. At the end of the cheese dairy tour we will be inebriated with the unmistakable aromas of the King of cheeses tasting different ageings of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese.
We will head to a Prosciutto plant crossing the amazing Parma hills region. We will discover the secrets of the sweetness of Prosciutto di Parma visiting all the rooms used during the production process: the salting area and machines, the first and the second salting, the preresting, the resting, the washing, the precuring and the curing rooms. The visit will be followed by tasting of Prosciutto di Parma and traditional cured meats with a glass of DOC Parma hills wine.
Our Parma hillside food trail will end with a stroll through the gorgeous mediaeval hamlet of Torrechiara and a visit to the castle, which is considered one of the most beautiful and well preserved castles of the Parma province.
