Discover Italy's Best-Kept Secret
Secret Piemonte is an online publication covering slow travel, insider tips, and local stories from Piedmont, Italy.
Want to discover the real Piedmont? You’re in the right place.
Whether you’re planning your first (or next) visit, or you live in Piemonte and want to explore the region, Secret Piemonte is here to help you find the places locals go.
Search for Piemonte online, and the same big-name hotels, restaurants, and wineries come up over and over again. They’re big names for a reason, but they’re far from the full story…
Take the Langhe hills, for example. They’re undeniably beautiful, and looking out from one of those hilltop villages feels like floating in a sea of vineyards. But across the river in Roero are different hills that are just as beautiful, where family-run agriturismi, local festivals, artisans, and producers fly under the tourist radar.
I’ve been visiting Piemonte since 2017, and have deep ties to the region through my partner Max, who’s from Alba. Years of sitting around family dining tables with plates of agnolotti and the kind of wines most people save for special occasions have given me a deep understanding of the region.
I regularly publish reviews, practical guides, and stories to inspire you before, during, and after your trip.
And twice a month, newsletter subscribers receive Pocket Piemonte: three bite-sized recommendations you won’t find by Googling.
About me
Ciao! I’m Victoria, a travel content writer and SEO strategist. Having lived and travelled all over the world, I now split my time between Piemonte and my home back in the UK.
I started this website to share the Piemonte I've come to know over years of dinner table conversations, long lunches, and walks in the hills with locals—the version most visitors never find on their own.
Join Pocket Piemonte to follow along as I build my new life here and get exclusive new content when it drops.
