Sagra della Trota
The Giara stream trout, since 1968, in the Arroscia Valley
About Sagra della Trota
The valley's longest-running festival
In Rezzo, a village in the upper Arroscia Valley in the province of Imperia, the Sagra della Trota (Trout Festival) is a tradition that has been going on since 1968, the year of its first edition. It is the valley's longest-running event, a symbol of the bond between the community and the clear waters of the Giara stream.
The trout takes centre stage
Local fishermen celebrate the Giara trout, served fresh at Giardini La Pagoda along with Ligurian cuisine dishes offered à la carte and local wines. The festival, organised by the Pro Loco of Rezzo, combines the promotion of a freshwater product with the conviviality of a village festival.
A regional recognition
The event is listed among the Authentic Ligurian Events, the brand of the Liguria Region that promotes festivals with a solid historical foundation and a strong link to local traditions. An unmissable stop for those who want to discover the authenticity of the Imperia hinterland in the summer.
