San Marco Church and historic village moments

The Church of San Marco in Pregasio was built in 1564 during Venetian rule. The altarpiece on the main altar depicts Saint Mark bending over the Gospel. These two details give the historic character of the village a tangible face and make San Marco an important cultural point of reference in Pregasio.

The historic San Marco festival is also part of the village’s heritage. It was celebrated on 25 April. Capretto and Spongadì were eaten on the occasion; Spongadì is the typical cake of Tremosine sul Garda. Those interested in local traditions and regional food encounter here a connection between festival culture and culinary history that extends beyond individual sights.

Trails from Pregasio to Campione

The path from Pregasio to Campione passes through the hamlet of Lò, where an old quarry is located. Travellers should allow a separate block of time for the Pieve–Campione Trail and include the steep path to Campione in their daily planning. In this way, the trail experience, small village landmarks and a notable testimony to earlier work come together in a varied exploration.

History and destinations in the surrounding area

During the First World War, a military cableway ran directly from the lake to Pregasio and was used to transport goods.
