Edition 2025 — Sagra della Lumaca di Molini

In September 2025, Molini di Triora also celebrated the Sagra della Lumaca, amidst the stone alleyways of the upper Valle Argentina. Snails stewed, sautéed, and in soup, prepared according to traditional recipes, animated the Pro Loco stands along with local wines and products.

The 2025 edition confirmed the tradition of the Sagra della Lumaca in Molini di Triora, in the Imperia hinterland. Amidst the stone alleyways of the historic center, the Pro Loco stands offered snails in typical preparations — stewed with tomato, with aromatic herbs, in soup, and sautéed with garlic and parsley — accompanied by local wines, mountain cheeses, and valley desserts.

A festival with an authentic flavor, made of rustic cuisine and conviviality, which reaffirmed the snail as a symbol of a gastronomic tradition linked to the peasant life of the upper Valle Argentina.

Programme

The festival took place among the village alleyways with the opening of gastronomic stands dedicated to snails in traditional preparations, accompanied by local wines, mountain cheeses, and typical desserts, with folk music.

Highlights

Traditional snail dishes and the atmosphere of the stone alleyways.

Prices

Free admission. Food and drinks payable at the stands.
