The chestnut is certainly among the oldest fruits consumed in the Aosta Valley.
In the low altitude woods, chestnut groves have developed over the centuries, concentrated above all in the middle and lower Aosta Valley.
In autumn, to celebrate this peasant food, various festivals are organised where you can enjoy roasted chestnuts cooked directly on the fire or taste desserts prepared with chestnut flour.
Take advantage of the chestnut festivals to visit the villages and castles of the region and to spend pleasant moments of joy.
