Truffle Hunting in Langhe

Immerse yourself in one of Piedmont’s oldest and most fascinating traditions. The truffle hunt in the Langhe with Casa di Langa is not a simple excursion, but an exclusive ritual, a sensory journey into the heart of our woods, reserved solely for our resort guests. Accompanied by the silence of nature and the infallible nose of the Lagotto dogs, you will personally experience the magic of discovering the underground gold of our land, the famous White Truffle of Alba.

This is more than a hunt: it is a deep connection with the territory, a cultural heritage that we are proud to share, in a context of sustainable luxury and absolute privacy.

The Art of Truffle Hunting: A Tradition to be Lived

Our 42-hectare estate is the perfect setting for this adventure. Here, far from everything, you will be guided by an expert trifolao, a guardian of the forest’s secrets, who, together with his trusted dogs, will teach you to interpret the signs of the earth. The truffle hunting experience we offer is authentic and private, an intimate dialogue with the surrounding environment, in line with the philosophy of our estate.

The thrill of seeing these precious gems, white or black, emerge from the soil is a memory you will carry with you, a symbol of a truly unforgettable gastronomic holiday in the Langhe.

• Expert Guide: a local trifolao will reveal history and techniques.
• Trained Dogs: you will admire the incredible work of the Lagotto dogs, master searchers.
• Private Experience: an activity dedicated only to you, to ensure intimacy and exclusivity.

From the Forest to the Table: Where to Taste the Truffle

The pinnacle of this adventure is reached at the table. The truffle, with its intoxicating aroma, is the undisputed star of our cuisine. At the Fàula restaurant, our Chef Francesco Clerico celebrates this local treasure in dishes that enhance the raw material and the produce from our garden.

The perfect pairing? A glass of the finest Piedmont wines, selected from our cellar. Let us recommend a tasting of fine wines that will complete an all-encompassing sensory journey, making your stay at our hotel with a private truffle hunt a moment of pure pleasure.
