Camping Yoghi e Bubu

Whatever the season, it’s all about the outdoors here. For a start, access to around 100 kilometres of walking paths is close to the site; local wildflower meadows are a top pick for strolls in spring and summer, and autumn is the time to turn out with the locals to forage for mushrooms and chestnuts in the woodland. Mountain bikers can get their adrenaline kick at the Monte Alpet Bike Park, 15 minutes away; in summer, ski pistes are transformed into bike paths to hurtle down at speed. For a more leisurely view of the area, pack up your rods for a day of fishing on the Casotto and Corsaglia rivers around 20 minutes away. Snow sport fans have plenty of options within a few minutes’ drive in winter: the Roburent and San Giacomo ski areas have more than 35 kilometres of downhill pistes between them, with lessons and equipment hire all available in the village. More pistes and a snowpark are a 45-minute drive away in Prato Nevoso. More peacefully, visit 12th-century Valcasotto Castle (15 minutes), wander through the underground caverns and passages at Bossea caves (25 minutes), or take a trip to the medieval Sanctuary of Vicoforte, half an hour away.
