Recommended activities

• Wine villages and panoramic castles

  Visit the iconic villages of Langhe such as Barolo, La Morra, Monforte d’Alba, Serralunga and Neive, climb up to castles and viewpoints to admire the sea of vineyard-covered hills and discover ancient brick and tuff cellars, often reachable with a short walk from your farmhouse.

• Walks among vineyards, hazelnut groves and the woods of Roero

  The hills of Langhe and Roero are crossed by well-marked trails through vineyards, woods and gullies: easy panoramic routes link one village to another, ideal if you love slow-paced walking and taking photos of the countryside in every season, from harvest time to autumn colours.

• Cycle tourism and slow tours across the hills

  Quiet country roads and secondary routes make Langhe and Roero perfect for road bikes, gravel bikes and e-bikes. Many farmhouses offer bike storage, maps and advice on routes, so you can alternate climbs and descents, cellar stops and a relaxed return to the hills at sunset.

• Wine tastings and traditional Langa cuisine

  Plan winery visits to taste Barolo, Barbaresco, Barbera, Nebbiolo and Roero Arneis, paired with cured meats, cheeses and classic dishes such as tajarin, plin, wine-braised meat, fondue and desserts like bunet and hazelnut cake. Many farmhouses have an in-house restaurant with seasonal menus inspired by Piedmontese cuisine.

Practical tips

• Best time to go: spring is perfect for green hills and blossom, summer for long evenings outdoors between vineyards and wineries, while autumn is the ideal time for foliage, grape harvest and Alba white truffle season. Winter, which is quieter, is great for food and wine weekends and visits to castles and wine museums.
• How to get there and get around: Langhe and Roero are easy to reach by car from Turin, Asti and Cuneo. Once there, it is convenient to move by car between the various villages, combining panoramic roads with short stretches on foot among vineyards and hazelnut groves, or to rent e-bikes to explore the hills without too much effort.
• Who it’s ideal for: the area is ideal for couples who love wine and good food, families looking for nature and small safe villages to explore on foot, groups of friends and curious travellers who want to combine tastings, walks and cultural visits in a compact territory full of experiences.
