Cheese-making Farm Visits
Discover the culinary traditions of the French Alps with a visit to a local cheese-making farm in the Giffre Valley. These farms, often family-run, offer tours demonstrating the process of crafting famous Savoyard cheeses like Reblochon, Abondance, or Tomme. Visitors can learn about dairy farming, animal welfare, and the intricate steps from milking to aging. Tastings are usually included, providing an opportunity to sample authentic local products directly from the producer. Tours are available seasonally, often requiring reservations, and typically cost around 10-15 EUR per person. A wonderful activity for foodies and families.
