Getting to Piedmont from the rest of Italy is rather simple, as long as you are willing to rent a car; besides, half of the fun is driving around the winding hills as you bounce from winery to winery, making new discoveries along the way. We also recommend taking the train, to Turin, the largest city in Piedmont and easily accessible from Italy’s other main cities. There are also bus options and easy access to cabs, in order to see the villages. Drivers and guide services are an option for travelers who don’t want to drive themselves when getting around Barolo and Barbaresco. It is a good idea given the windy, hilly country roads – and GPS isn’t always accurate.
Average temperatures in Northern Piedmont vary greatly. Considering humidity, temperatures feel cold all year with a very low chance of rain or snow throughout the year. The area is less temperate than some — in the 30th percentile for pleasant weather — compared to tourist destinations worldwide. The warmest time of the year is generally early August, where highs are regularly around 24-27°C (75.2-80.6°F), with temperatures rarely dropping below 20°C (68°F) at night. If dry weather is what you’re after, the months with the lowest chance of significant precipitation in Northern Piedmont are February, January, and then March. When can you find snow in Northern Piedmont? Weather stations report far greater snow than most winter tourist destinations throughout most of the year, likely to be deepest around January, especially close to late January and early February. The best time to ski (if at all) in Northern Piedmont is often around October 8th, when fresh powder is deepest.
