In the heart of Cilento, the Festa nel Bosco returns to Perito, a beloved food and wine tradition organized by the Pro Loco of Perito in partnership with the local municipal administration. Now in its 45th edition, the festival welcomes locals and travelers alike into the enchanting setting of the Bosco Fontana chestnut grove, located just steps away from the historic village center. Authentic local peasant cuisine takes center stage, spotlighting a rich menu featuring handmade Cilento cavatielli pasta tossed with mutton ragù, woodland boscaiola sauce, or classic tomato sauce. The culinary lineup also highlights traditional specialties such as minestra stretta, stuffed eggplants, ciaula, chargrilled meats, regional cheeses, artisanal desserts, and fine Cilento wines. Every evening is brought to life with folk music performances and live entertainment.
