Garessio

This pocket-sized Piedmontese village in the Ligurian Alps known for its mineral water, Aqua San Bernardo, which drew spa visitors at the turn of the twentieth century and still carries a reputation for healing properties. The former Savoy royal palace, the Reggia di Val Casotto, sits within the town limits, and the well-preserved historic centre has attracted buyers of heritage properties. The surrounding terrain supports mountain biking, cycling, skiing, and hiking, with the Langhe wine region — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — accessible nearby.
