Experience a vibrant historical event celebrating the rich traditions of Carnia with spectacular challenges between the town's districts, using the 'cjarogiule,' an ancient wooden cart. This two-day festival offers a fantastic food and wine experience, featuring tastings of typical local dishes like polenta, frico, and roasted meats. Enjoy strolling entertainment with jugglers and shows, live music, fireworks, and a parade of the districts in traditional Carnic costumes.
Indulge in a delightful array of local specialties, from sweet tarts to hearty first courses like polenta served with mountain cheese and pancetta, or with frico (a delicious potato and cheese dish), and rich stew. Discover authentic mountain cheeses and local honey. For main courses, savor roasted pork with potatoes, or savoy cabbage with crispy pork cracklings. Don't miss the unique Samavile plate, featuring boiled potatoes, guanciale, mixed cheeses, honey, pears, and walnuts.
