Ideal destinations in Piedmont



Experiences in Piedmont: what to know

Piedmont offers beautiful landscapes for experiences in the city and within a few miles of major destinations. The region is not only famous for its wide variety of vegetation, from plains to hills, lakes, and mountains, but also for the diversity of local products and dishes, such as dawn truffles and agnolotti.

What to do in Piedmont

The most touristy area is the Langhe and Monferrato, where you can find very scenic horseback rid es, sunset picnics, or nice truffle hunts. Otherwise, Lake Maggiore and Lake Orta, where near Orta San Giulio one sets off for a canoe ride on the lake. For the more adventurous, in the wintertime, the resorts of Sauze d'Oulx and Prato Nevoso are teeming with snowmobiles for fresh snow excursions, which are also a great idea if you want to give a Christmas or birthday gift.

Original couple experiences in Piedmont

Turin, Novara, the Langhe, Alba, Sestriere, the province of Cuneo and Prato Nevoso, and all the rest of the region guarantee an atmosphere suitable for any kind of occasion, including romantic ones. Whether you are looking for a wine tasting or romantic picnic in Cella Monte, a fun quad bike ride with friends in Monferrato, or a peaceful horseback ride with friends, Piedmont is the right destination!

Truffle hunting in the Langhe hills of Alba

Truffle hunting among the hills of Alba, in the Langhe region, is a perfect experience to experience firsthand a special moment: the search for this mysterious and fascinating ingredient.

You will have the opportunity to see live a secret and complex craft: that between the trifulau and his dog is a close relationship made of trust and mutual respect, which comes only after many years of experience. 

Few people have the opportunity to participate firsthand in this search: trifulau are in fact used to roam alone, sometimes at night, away from prying eyes. 

Although this is an “actual search” with a professional trifulau and his “tabui” (favorite dog), the one you will participate in è a ’simulated activity.  

However, since the search takes place in a natural truffle ground, è it is possible that truffles not artificially buried, but spontaneously grown on the spot, may also be found!

You can choose to have this experience exclusively with a private tour or do it on a shared basis.

For the activity to run smoothly, you will need to be self-driven as you will be expected to move between the meeting point and the forest where the experience takes place. We also recommend outdoor sportswear.

In case of mud or light rain, the activity is guaranteed and you will be provided with rubber chaps and capes. The activity will be moved or cancelled with a refund in case of heavy rains.
