Sundays in the mountain pastures

june - september

30 minutes from La Bursch

From 7 June to 6 September, the unmissable ‘Sundays in the Mountain Pastures’ events return to the mountains of Bielmonte. These are immersive experiences during which time seems to slow down and the heat and hustle and bustle of everyday life melt away in the fresh air of the alpine pastures.

An opportunity to reconnect with nature and the deepest roots of rural life. Getting up close to the animals is a unique sensory experience that captivates every visitor.

You’ll be able to watch the milking and the process of turning milk into cheese – an ancient art that requires patience, skill, passion and dedication.

Esoteric tour of Rosazza

Among Masonic symbols, bizarre architecture, and mysteriously charming alleys, the visit reveals the secret aspects of history and explores the esoteric and legendary side of the area.

We will be happy to provide you with more information and organize your mystery tour.

ben cüncià: polenta concia festival

November

Ben Cüncià is the first widespread festival dedicated to polenta concia, organised by the Pro Loco associations of Biella and Oropa.

Local restaurants (including La Bursch!) will offer special menus, and a welcome kit will make this autumn event, now in its eighth edition, even more unique.
