One of the largest provinces in Italy, Cuneo may not be known to the masses, but its strategic position in south-western Piedmont makes the city and its surroundings an ideal base to explore some of Piedmont’s most beautiful mountain landscapes and picturesque historic villages, to discover the history, traditions, cuisine and natural beauty of this often overlooked area of Italy. 

Start in Cuneo, a small town with a typical 19th-century Savoy layout and architecture, set in a grandiose alpine setting. Indeed, the province of Cuneo extends from the slopes of the Alps that mark the border between Italy and France, an ideal destination for outdoor lovers.
