Enjoy local flavors, make your own cheese, and taste authentic alpine life!

The agriturismo is located just a few meters from the cable car station, at the foot of Monte Rosa. The place is very well maintained, and the team is highly trained, courteous, and attentive. The products offered are of the highest quality: in addition to dairy products (excellent cheeses of various ages and yogurt), the jams, honey, cured meats, and pasta are truly outstanding and served in generous portions. And we can’t forget the cakes... the pear and chocolate one is amazing! We highly recommend it — whether for a short visit or a longer stay, it’s definitely worth it!
After a hike, we stopped here for lunch. The place is charming and relaxing, with outdoor tables under the trees. Even though we arrived an hour late, the staff were very kind and welcoming. Service was a bit slow, but understandable given the number of guests. We tried the house specialties: Macugnaga-style pasta, polenta with Toma Burki cheese, and to finish, a simply delicious blueberry cheesecake. Everything was so good that we can’t wait to come back! 🌾✨
Despite the large number of customers, they kindly found me a place to sit, and I had a wonderful lunch of simple polenta with ragù! The cheeses are sublime, served with honey (my choice from the menu). The staff are kind and attentive! Thank you all for your dedication!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🥂✌️
