The Alta Langa is a land suspended between sky and hills, where the rhythms of nature mark the days and each season brings different colors and fragrances. We find ourselves in the heart of an area that remains authentic and relatively untouched by mass tourism, characterized by small stone villages, scenic roads winding through vineyards, hazelnut groves, and ancient forests, along with a dense network of trails perfect for hiking or biking.
Sale delle Langhe, home to Cascina Grattinera, is a small municipality surrounded by greenery, making it an ideal spot for those seeking silence, clean air, and landscapes rich in rural history and traditions. Just a few minutes away are the famous lavender fields of Sale San Giovanni, which are particularly stunning between June and July when the landscape turns purple and the air is filled with a strong fragrance. A bit farther, the majestic Basilica of Vicoforte captivates visitors with its elliptical dome, one of the largest in Europe, while towns like Barolo, La Morra, and Barbaresco offer enticing gastronomic routes with wineries, wine shops, and trattorias where one can savor local flavors.
For those looking for a different experience, the Ligurian coast is reachable in about 30 minutes, providing an opportunity to combine the tranquility of the hills with the vibrancy of the beaches, all while enjoying the peace of one's evening retreat. The region also lends itself to naturalistic and cultural itineraries, featuring castles, ancient churches, markets, and village festivals that bring summer to life in the Langhe with music, food, and a sense of community.
Alta Langa is the perfect place for those who wish to slow down, immerse themselves in nature, and discover an intimate, authentic, and surprisingly unexplored side of Piedmont.
