Gino's Italian Escape

Gino's Italian Escape

Express: Garda to Bolzano (7x5)


:

This week Gino leaves Verona on one of Italy’s super fast trains and heads to the majestic Lake Garda, the biggest of the Italian lakes. Here he meets a team of rowers training for their annual regatta. After trying his hand at rowing, Gino cooks up a hearty sausage and bean casserole before jumping on the train and heading North towards the Dolomites. Arriving in the city of Bolzano, Gino no longer feels like he’s in Italy, as the majority of people here actually speak German. Taking the cable car further into the mountains, it’s like a scene from the Sound of Music. Gino rides a very special train on the Renon line, which is over 100 years old and with spectacular views overlooking Bolzano, he cooks a deconstructed apple crumble.
