Baita 2000
If you are skiing in Limone Piemonte and looking for a lunch spot that defies the ordinary, you need to point your skis toward the Cabanaira chairlift. At the top, hidden artfully into the rugged mountainside, you will discover Baita 2000. It feels like a secret fortress of leisure, boasting a magnificent round deck that offers commanding views of the Rocca dell'Abisso. This isn't just a place to refuel; it is a destination in itself.
Il Nazionale
Just a stone's throw from Limone Piemonte, in the heart of Vernante, lies a culinary landmark where the flavor of tradition has been nurtured since 1869. Il Nazionale is more than a restaurant; it is a story told on a plate, a celebration of the extraordinary palette of the Maritime Alps and the people who call them home.
