Snacks and lunches on the farm, surrounded by snow<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Experiencing winter in Livigno<\/strong> means not only skiing on the slopes of the ski area, which will also host the Winter Olympics, but discovering the most authentic and genuine soul of the mountains<\/strong>. And to do so, there is nothing better than a nice combination of food and nature<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

There is a place in Livigno where it is possible to savour the dishes and products of the traditional cuisine<\/strong> in a setting dominated by the immaculate whiteness of the snow<\/strong>, far from the centre, the cars and the great tourist flows, in an almost unreal peace: the Alpe Vago<\/strong>, open in winter in the early months of the year.<\/p>\n

Alpe Vago Alpine hut and farmhouse: winter hours and typical menu<\/h3>\n

\"alpe<\/p>\n

After a few months\u2019 break from summer activities, the Alpe Vago<\/span><\/a> reopened its doors, as per tradition, in the days after Christmas and will remain open until early spring<\/strong>. Of course, there are many differences compared to July and August: the verdant pastures and mountains all around are covered in snow, the animals do not graze in the meadows but are sheltered in the barn on our farm, and the temperatures are much lower. But inside the farmhouse the atmosphere is that of summer days: warmth, cosiness and lots of good food<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Here, in our spacious dining room or at the tables outside on sunny winter days, you will find everything you need to have an unforgettable experience in Livigno<\/strong>, while contemplating a dreamlike panorama: a typical lunch with local dishes<\/strong>, or a tasting of home-made, zero-km products<\/strong>. Also on the winter menu are our most popular specialities, such as the pizocar livignaschi<\/strong> (see what they are<\/a><\/span>), polenta accompanied by delicious meats and other mountain dishes, as well as the shepherd's basket<\/a><\/span>, which contains a selection of goodies made in Livigno<\/strong>, such as salumi<\/a><\/span> and cheese<\/a><\/span>, ideal for a snack or a pick-me-up to regain energy.<\/p>\n

In the winter season, Alpe Vago is open every day from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.<\/strong>, with kitchen open for lunch from 11.30 a.m. until 2 p.m.<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

How to reach Alpe Vago in winter<\/h3>\n

Just as in summer, the Alpe Vago alpine pasture is the ideal destination for a nature hike in Livigno<\/strong>, but in winter it is even more special: the alpine pasture is located in an area immersed in the tranquillity of nature, where it is not possible to arrive by car because the road in the direction of the Forcola Pass remains closed during the winter months. The only way to get to Alpe Vago<\/strong> is therefore by snow:<\/p>\n
