The Fira d'la Pouià is a fascinating event that celebrates one of the most ancient and enchanting traditions of the Alps: transhumance. Every year, this celebration brings to life the magical moment of the ascent to mountain pastures, when herds set out toward summer grazing lands at high altitude. It is a moving spectacle that recreates the gestures and rituals of centuries past, allowing visitors to experience firsthand the pastoral heritage of the region.

Accompanied by the Sagra del Saras del Fen, the festival also celebrates local gastronomic excellence, particularly cheeses and typical products of Alpine tradition. The event represents a perfect blend of intangible cultural heritage and food and wine culture, offering visitors the opportunity to understand how the land, human labor, and nature intertwine in the creation of extraordinary products.

An unmissable appointment for those who wish to discover the authentic roots of mountain culture, immersed in landscapes of incomparable beauty and surrounded by the evocative atmosphere of traditional transhumance.
