High Langa

Village in the Belbo valley known for its typical products: the hazelnuts, the white beans known as “Regina di Spagna” (queens of Spain) and the robiola cheese made from goat milk.

The town got its name from a legend about Nella di Cortemilia, secluded in the town’s castle in order not to be abused by the local lord Lionello.

The municipality of Bonvicino is made of a bunch of houses gathered round the parish church, an ancient stone chapel, some farms on the hills around, and the little village of Lovera.

Benevello, built on the north border of the “alta Langa”, offers a wonderful view on Alba and its territory.

Built on the border between the Dogliani area and the first hills of the so-called “alta Langa”, Belvedere is famous for the view it offers.

The town, inhabited by 150 people, is the smallest Italian municipality; it’s made of a few houses gathered around the parish church of the Guardian Angels.

The village is characterized by terracing supported by stone walls typical of the area. Its name derives from the tower of ancient pre-Romanesque origins.
