Cuneo Travel Forum

Has anyone been to Cuneo? I'm having trouble finding any information on this city. I will be traveling from Torino to Nice and figured I would stop in for a quick cafe or time it for lunch for the ride down. Is it worth the stop over or should I drive on past?

Thanks in advance!

Hi not been there but apparently it had a Cathedral, 12th C. Church, medieval streets and a fortress, and a castle.
tourist info is atCUNEO A.P.T.

It's worth a visit; very interesting architecture in the neighbourhood.
Don't miss the "baci di Cuneo": sugar, chocolate and alchol... :-)

Thank you for the responses and the link!
Titti, I noticed you reside in Bergamo, that is where I will be staying for a week before I head to Torino! I've been once before and love the place. We will be staying with relatives and will be making side trips to Lago de Garda and Milan.

One additional question for you: Do you know any local wineries that do tastings and tours? I have found one(www.latordela.it/eng/Default.htm) but thats it.

Thanks again!

I've never been to Cuneo, but you could stop in Tende on the French side of the border. An interesting archaeology museum, a few nice cafes etc. Good scenery too, though I guess that goes for most places in Piemonte / Alpes Maritimes

Great info!

Thanks for the help!
