The families healthy holiday

Langa-Astesana-Riviera are the three Italian traditional areas of health, identified as preferred locations for family holidays since Nineteenth Century. A month during Summer at the seaside, in the countryside or in the mountains, a week around Easter, the hot days of August, two weeks for the grapes care in September, a visit to a oil mill of western Liguria in search of new oil in the first months of the year: these were the formulas for the family health care and the Summer rest especially intended to benefit the children, while the older, already free from daily obligations of work, chose the winter months to enjoy Riviera.
Ancient formulas, but confirmed today after the hangover of many types of exotic vacations suggested by the tourist market. There are new important reasons to return to the Piedmont hills and beaches of Riviera di Ponente: serenity and environmental safety, slow rhythm on welcoming land, healthy food rich of Mediterranean flavors, possibility of body welness and sport, gastronomic events all year round, attendance of interesting people from all over Europe.

Langais an area of high hills or gentle mountains, that in the South of Piedmont faces towards the western Ligurian Riviera and receives cool breezes. It's become the new home of Swiss, Lombard or German families, who invented in a dozen of small villages funny and creative accommodation and restaurants. Around us there are ancient vineyards and the world's most precious hazelnut forest, small herds of goats from which comes a delicious cheese (Robiola di Roccaverano) and lots of craftsmanship and gastronomy, stone houses, many flowers and an infinite landscape.
Astesanais the garden (hill) of the wine of Piedmont: is here almost half of Piedmontese wines, the storic sparkling wine of Italy (in Canelli), much of Italian real grappa. Fifty villages, small on average, with dozens of castles and many historic buildings, a hundred restaurants and hotels of elegant reception. Hence most of the best truffles and magnificent specimens of ancient Piemontese cattle, an excellent meat.
Alongside Astesana hills, the hills of Monferrato, so rich in landscape, castles, wine and thermae. The history of Italy has passed through here with great European Kings as Frederick II.

Riviera di Ponenteis the rocky coast of Liguria, ranging from the historic city of Savona with its marina (Vado) to the border with France (French Riviera). In this section stands the beautiful beach of Alassio in a privileged geographical position, because offers the maximum of sunny weather during th year.
