The KESCHTNRIGGL Chestnut Days are a traditional autumn celebration rooted in the region of Tesimo and the neighbouring villages of Prissiano, Foiana, and Lana. The festival celebrates the local 'Tisner Kescht' chestnut variety and takes its name from the 'Keschtnriggl', a traditional basket woven from chestnut and hazel wood historically used to peel freshly roasted chestnuts. Throughout the event, local restaurants present dedicated menus and special chestnut-infused dishes. The programme also features guided hikes through chestnut groves, roasted chestnut feasts organised by community groups, visits to traditional farmsteads (masi) and local breweries, as well as tastings of fine wine and artisanal chestnut beer.
