The vineyard landscape of Langhe-Roero and Monferrato has no equal. Designated as a World Heritage by UNESCO in 2014, its spectacular rural landscape is rightly considered to be one of the most strikingly beautiful regions in the world, cultivated and shaped by generations of farmers.
Discovering Langhe is a thrilling adventure which deserves time to explore and savour its traditions, nature, history, artistic and literary heritage along with the unmissable enogastronomic delicacies of Alba and its surroundings. A week exploring this land on foot is, however, long enough to sample the essence of the culture on offer.
Starting from Alba, the geometry of the Barbaresco vineyards gives way to hazel groves, pastures and the crops of Alta Langa, and then goes back to the charming scenery of the grapevine rows designed with goldsmith precision and combed with motherly love in the Barolo area. With more than 200 accommodations options listed, this guidebook makes it easier to enjoy the 150 km
