Enjoy the Piedmont

Discover the Piedmont!

 

A rolling up and down hills, green shaded with oak groves, vineyards and hazelnut groves.

The Province of Asti lies at the heart of Piedmont and borders Liguria in the south. The mostly hilly territory stretches across Monferato and a small area of the Langhe and the Langa Astigana, and is traversed by the Tanaro River.

Gentle hilts alternate with valleys to creat landscapes of unique beauty, and vineyards stretch as far as the eye can see, to provide a kaleidoscope of shades and tones.

The Asti area ia a wine producer par excellence and the home Asti Spumante DOCG( sparkling wine), renowned and exported all around the world. While the hills offer wonderful landscapes, the various reserves have own beauty, such as the Rocchetta Tanaro Natural Park, the Special Natural Reserve of the Andona, Botto and Grande Valleys, and the unique WWF Oasis of Forteto della Luja, which includes a beautiful stretch of the Langa, lying on the banks of the Luja Stream.

Within this stunning natural scenery lie towns of Medieval Origins, such as Canelli, Nizza Monferrato and San Damiano d' Asti, or small but evocative Medieval borgoes in the hills, like Moncalvo, Roccaverano and Costigliole.

Along the ancient Via Francigena, it is still possible to see wonderful Medieval parish churches and abbeys, while the monuments of Asti's historic center testify to the golden age of the Asti, when it was a free comune. ( 11th to 14th Centuries)

Folkloric events, the local cuisine based on tradtitionel recipes and the local produce never fail to delight visitors.
