The town of CUNEO

Cuneo is the capital town of the Provincia Granda, situated on a plateau between Stura and Gesso rivers. This wealthy and lively frontier town is involved in a range of commercial and cultural initiatives. Cuneo is surrounded by a host of wonderful valleys, all featuring magnificent landscapes as well as artistic treasures. Its marvellous green parks and gardens, long tree-lined avenues, large squares and beautiful Gothic and Baroque churches, as well as the stately buildings of the town centre, the arcaded streets and the characteristic shops of Via Roma and Corso Nizza, which lead to the imposing Piazza Galimberti, all go to make Cuneo a truly unique town. Cuneo and its valleys are also renowned for their gastronomic delights, including superb cheese, beef by Piedmont cattle breed, delicious snails and tasty salami, vegetables and fruit, chestnuts - used to make yummy Marron Glacés - and mushrooms, maize and buckwheat polenta.

THE ALPS IN WINTER– sport, nature and fun

There are no less than 20 valleys in the province, which extend from Cuneo towards Liguria and France, dominated by the imposing Monviso peak with an altitude of 3841 m. The famous ski resorts of Cuneo are situated there and are all easily accessible by train and car. Fun and adventure are guaranteed for sports and nature lovers, accompanied by the allure of the majestic summits of the alpine arc.

You can choose all this just visiting one of the skiing resorts in Limone Piemonte, Artesina, Prato Nevoso, Sestriere or Vars-Risoul (on the French border) or one of the many other resorts of the area. In Summer the same mountains offer countless opportunities for hiking, climbing, biking, canoeing, white-water rafting, paragliding and angling fans.

CULTURE and HISTORY – Kingdom of Savoy and Marquisate of Saluzzo

The Province of Cuneo is an extraordinary casket of architectural jewels dating from Romanesque, to Gothic and Baroque periods. These are the lands of the former kingdom of Savoy, where towns are a perfect scenery for the parades of princes and their courts. Along the road which once took merchants and nobles, pilgrims and bandits from Turin - the capital city - to the sea, it is still possible to admire masterpieces of history, art and culture like Racconigi, Savigliano, Fossano, Mondovì. While strolling in the old town centre of Saluzzo and visiting its stately buildings, museums and art collections, one can still feel the atmosphere and relive the history of its ancient Marquisate. Fine works of art adorn abbeys (like Staffarda), castles (Manta), sanctuaries (Vicoforte), and various parish churches. In the small alpine chapels and in the typical piloni (shrines) one can admire magnificent 14th century fresco cycles.
