Lessinia Regional Nature Park is located between the Venetian Pre-Alps and the province of Verona and combines fields, hills, mountains, and canyons stretching across 820km². It has an immeasurable number of archaeological, prehistoric, and cultural sites, fauna, and a natural beauty unique in the world for its origin. The presence of man in the area dates back to the Lower Paleolithic, and among many was inhabited by Romans, settlers of German origin, Serenissima expatriates, French domination by Napoleon, and Austrians.

"Shadow isn’t just the dialectical moment as opposed to the light, it’s also a psychological moment as opposed to the brightness; there is brightness and there is sorrow too", Ferdinando Scianna
