Arrive and Settle In
Friday evening is for arriving, checking in, and getting oriented. Keep it simple — a short walk to get your bearings, then dinner near the hotel.
Via Roma Walk and Market
Free 50m from centreMain pedestrian street with traditional stone buildings, small shops, and weekly Wednesday morning market selling local cheese, salami, and produce.
Tip: Arrive early at the market — by 10:30 the best toma cheese is usually gone. Cash only.
Battaglione Alpini Museum
Free 350m from centreSmall museum in a former barracks dedicated to the Alpini mountain troops. Displays uniforms, weapons, and photographs from both world wars.
Tip: Ask the custodian to show you the rooftop terrace — excellent views over the town and valley, and most visitors miss it.
Friday dinner pick
The Main Sights
Saturday is your main sightseeing day. Start early to beat the crowds at the top attractions, then take the afternoon at a slower pace.
Limone Piemonte Cemetery
Free Daily 07:00-19:00Unusual war cemetery with rows of Commonwealth and German graves from WWII. Well-kept grounds with mountain backdrop. Quiet, reflective place.
Tip: Look for the Polish soldier grave near the rear wall — locals still leave flowers on it.
Santuario di San Bernardo
Free Daily 08:00-12:00, 14:30-19:0017th-century stone sanctuary on a hillside just above town. Plain baroque interior with good frescoes. Short steep walk from the main square via cobbled lanes.
Tip: Evening light through the south-facing windows makes the altar glow. Worth a detour just after 17:00 in summer.
Parco dei Camosci
Free Daily 08:00-20:00Fenced nature area up the valley just outside town where you can spot chamois, ibex, and marmots in a semi-wild setting. Flat gravel path suitable for pushchairs.
Tip: Go at 9:00 or 16:30 when keepers bring hay — animals are most visible then. Bring binoculars.
Saturday dining
