Located in the heart of Piedmont, in the picturesque Po Valley, the Ecotouristic Inn La Via del Sale is a refuge that harmoniously blends into the mountainous landscape, dominated by the imposing Monviso and washed by the majestic Po River, the longest watercourse in Italy. This corner of unspoiled nature, soaked in the ancient Occitan traditions, offers enchanting views and a perfect atmosphere for those seeking outdoor adventures and moments of authenticity.
The structure, inaugurated in 2006 after a skillful restoration of a historical municipal sawmill, welcomes visitors with a modern design that respects the local tradition, using wood and alpine stone to create a sober and welcoming environment. Each room is equipped with modern comforts, such as private bathrooms, towels, sheets, and amenities like a TV and refrigerator, without compromising the essence of a mountain retreat. Guests can fully experience the charm of this location in all seasons, thanks to affordable and consistent rates throughout the year.
Managed by experienced naturalistic guides, La Via del Sale offers the opportunity to explore the most evocative places in the area, including the Po Natural Park and Mombracco, rich in historical and prehistoric evidence. A few kilometers away is Saluzzo, the ancient capital of the marquisate, and Staffarda, a renowned Cistercian abbey. The inn also commits to supporting active experiences, with bike and snowshoe rentals, along with a selection of informative brochures to plan memorable excursions.
The furnishings, designed for a varied clientele, ensure flexibility that adapts to both couples and groups, while maintaining a rural and rustic atmosphere. The facility also provides regular cleaning services, with towel changes every two nights and sheet changes every four nights, ensuring a comfortable and well-kept stay.
Also, breakfast, available upon reservation, allows you to start the day with a selection of fresh and homemade products: from jams to honey, from local pastries to fruit juices, for a tasty and traditional awakening. La Via del Sale is not just a place to stay, but a true immersion in the beauty and culture of Piedmont, an invitation to discover a fascinating territory rich in history.
