Restaurant Le Montagnard

Le Montagnard Risto Museo is located in the picturesque village of Chianale, a hamlet of Pontechianale, in the heart of the Varaita Valley, at the foot of the Colle dell’Agnello. Housed in a former 17th-century stable, the restaurant combines Alpine atmosphere, culture, and culinary tradition, offering visitors an authentic and highly atmospheric experience.
The restaurant serves typical dishes from Piedmontese and Occitan cuisine, prepared with local ingredients and a strong focus on quality. Among the most popular specialities are the ravioles from the Varaita Valley, polenta, and traditional mountain desserts.
The warm and distinctive setting, designed like a small museum of Alpine civilisation, makes Le Montagnard an ideal stop for hikers, tourists, and mountain lovers who wish to experience the authentic flavours and identity of the Cottian Alps.
