Location & what to see

Albergo Nazionale di Vernante stands on Via Cavour, in the heart of the small alpine village of Vernante, in the province of Cuneo, known for the murals dedicated to Pinocchio that decorate the facades of the historic centre. The village retains an intimate atmosphere, with stone alleys, craft shops and restaurants just steps from the hotel, such as Relais il Nazionale only 30 metres away and Martinet and Il Cavallino, both around 100 metres away.

Vernante railway station is just 200 metres away, while Limone Piemonte station is about 5 km away; the Riserva Bianca-Limone Piemonte, the area’s main ski resort, can be reached in 8 km. Cuneo Levaldigi Airport is about 33 km away, a reference point for those arriving by air from Piedmont. The location makes Vernante a practical base both for those travelling by car along the Colle di Tenda state road and for those who prefer the train.

The surrounding area is well suited to summer hiking and winter skiing: the Alpi Marittime Natural Park, 4.2 km away, offers trails through woods and rock faces up to the border with the Mercantour National Park in France, about 10 km away. Also about 10 km away is the Fort Central, a testament to the ancient alpine fortifications. In winter the Riserva Bianca-Limone Piemonte offers slopes for all levels, while in summer the same trails become ideal for walking and mountain biking, a sport for which the hotel provides bicycle rental.
