About Chilometro Enogastronomico
The Chilometro Enogastronomico in Varallo Pombia
The Chilometro Enogastronomico is one of the most anticipated spring events in Varallo Pombia, a small town in the Province of Novara, Piedmont. It is a culinary itinerary that invites residents and visitors to discover local flavors while strolling leisurely through the town's streets, from one stop to the next, glass in hand.
How it works
The formula is simple and convivial: the meeting point is set in the Villa Soranzo park, where the walk begins. Along the route, you will find six tasting stops distributed throughout the historic center, each dedicated to a different dish or specialty, paired with selected wines. It is an informal and fun way to experience the town, enjoy a walk in the open air, and dine together, stop after stop.
A community event
The event is organized by the Pro Loco of Varallo Pombia in collaboration with the Municipality, and represents an important moment of social connection for the entire community. Live music accompanies the tastings, transforming the town center into a large, widespread festival suitable for all ages.
Who is it for?
The Chilometro Enogastronomico is perfect for families: reduced rates are available for children, and participation is free for the little ones. Those who love good food, wine, and outdoor walks will find in Varallo Pombia a genuine opportunity to learn about the gastronomic traditions of the Novara area in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
