km 0 products and slow lifestyle

Those who have been lucky enough to spend a weekend or a few weeks in Alagna already know: our territory is not only the freeride paradise ,  but also the kingdom of locally produced products (km 0) and “slow” holidays. There are many gastronomy tours and just as many excursions recommended for those who love to travel slowly. Read, for example, what we wrote in the article Products from our territory, lunch & SPA: a typical day in Alagna , and you will realize what and how many leisure opportunities we offer regarding food and wine, cultural and historical. The names to be mentioned are many, from La Latteria, a real temple of good food in the center of Alagna, perfect for stocking up on cheese, pork salami made by us, bread and naturally leavened cookies and all types of delicacies from the territory. For the sweet toothed travelers, we have, among other products, the ‘miaccia’, a local delicacy you just have to taste, at Mario’s bar, an inevitable meeting point before dinner.
