In the same period, in the municipality of Mezzano, there is the "muccandando" event: a guided walk in the wonderful nature while accompanying the cows back to the cowshed after the alpine pasture, following long suggestive paths along which there are numerous restaurants, agritourisms and taverns where it is possible to taste delicious and genuine dishes.
