The Sagra del Cinghiale & dei Sentieri dell'Allume is an unmissable event for lovers of Lazio gastronomy and nature, scheduled for July 3-5, 2026. Hosted in the picturesque Piazzale Cesare Moroni in Allumiere, this festival celebrates the authentic flavors of the region, with wild boar as the undisputed star of the culinary offerings. Gastronomic specialties range from cinghiale in umido (braised wild boar), the iconic dish of local tradition, to cured meats and dishes prepared according to traditional Lazio recipes. Each dish tells the enogastronomic story of the area, allowing visitors to discover the culinary excellence of the region with affordable menus and guided tastings. Beyond food tastings, the festival offers a complete experience thanks to live music performances that animate all three days of the event, starting from 7:00 PM. The festive and convivial atmosphere creates the perfect opportunity to spend a weekend enjoying good food, entertainment, and sharing with family and friends. The Sentieri dell'Allume (Allume Trails) represent a significant natural attraction: this area of the Monti della Tolfa features fascinating circular hiking trails of varying difficulty (2 to 6 km), a rich mining history linked to alum extraction, and landscapes of rare beauty. Detailed maps and hiking guides are available at the information point in the square. The festival thus becomes a moment of valorizing the territory as a whole, combining culinary traditions, scenic beauty, and historical-cultural heritage.
