Between fairytale landscapes and irresistible flavours: a tasty journey through the Natisone Valleys

The Natisone Valleys, a treasure trove of hidden gems along the eastern border of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, invite you on an unforgettable journey. Admire breathtaking views that open up suddenly, with small villages dotting the landscape, and let yourself be captivated by the peace and unspoiled beauty of this corner of paradise.

A Triumph of Genuine Flavors

Every bite, in the Natisone Valleys, is an explosion of taste and tradition. A true journey through flavours: from cow cheeses aged in mysterious caves to handcrafted goat cheeses, from juicy Seuka and Barnenka apples to the golden nectar of apple juice and cider.

An Immersion in the Cuisine of the Heart

Let yourself be won over by typical dishes, prepared with fresh seasonal ingredients and loving dedication. In spring, wild herbs take center stage in the local cuisine, giving the dishes a unique and unmistakable flavor. You’ll find them in our fields, woods, and unspoiled meadows of the Natisone Valleys, gathered with care and respect for nature. The brovada soup warms both body and soul on early spring days. Frico, on the other hand, is always paired with steaming polenta, creating the perfect match. And to finish on a sweet note, enjoy the goodness of strucchi or gubana, ideally paired with a sip of grappa or slivovitz.

If you’re a lover of authentic flavors and want to experience something truly special, every year, in spring and autumn, “Invito a Pranzo nelle Valli del Natisone” opens the doors to an unforgettable culinary journey. You’ll be able to taste traditional dishes carefully prepared by local restaurateurs, immersing yourself in the warm atmosphere of a family-style lunch.
