The livestock fairs of La Pobleta de Bellveí are a tradition that dates back centuries and have been an essential meeting point for the local community. At these fairs, livestock farmers from the area and nearby counties exchange livestock, tools and knowledge, keeping a fundamental part of the mountain economy alive. Throughout history, these fairs have served as the central axis of social and commercial activity in the Vall Fosca.

In addition to being an important economic event, the Pobleta fairs have great cultural value. With the arrival of October, the streets of the town come alive, with activities that celebrate the agricultural and livestock heritage of the area. At Hotel Arturo, we encourage our guests to visit these fairs and discover local products, such as artisanal sausages and cheeses, which are rooted in the tradition of these celebrations.

At Hotel Arturo, we believe that quality cuisine begins in the garden. That's why a fundamental part of our commitment to local gastronomy is our own garden, located just a few meters from the restaurant. Here we grow fresh vegetables, aromatic herbs and other ingredients that are part of the dishes we offer our customers. Our products are harvested every day to ensure that the food we serve on your plate is as fresh as possible.

Our guests can enjoy the fruits of the garden in many of the dishes on our menu. From the fresh salads of lettuce, tomato and onion, to the herbs that give a special touch to our roasts and sauces, each ingredient is carefully selected. In addition, the seasons set the pace of production: in spring and summer, vegetables such as peppers and eggplants are the protagonists, while in autumn we enjoy pumpkins and cauliflowers. This natural cycle not only guarantees fresh products, but also helps us maintain a sustainable and environmentally friendly cuisine.

The orchard is also a way to connect with the territory and the agricultural tradition of Pallars. During your stay, we invite you to visit the orchard and learn first-hand how we grow the ingredients that you will later find on your plate.

Transhumance is an ancestral practice that has shaped the pastoral life of the Vall Fosca for centuries. It is the seasonal movement of livestock between winter and summer pastures, an activity that, beyond its economic aspect, is part of the cultural heritage of the area. At Hotel Arturo, guests have the opportunity to experience this unique experience up close, either by following the paths of the herders or participating in related activities.

During spring and autumn, the sight of herds moving across the mountain meadows is an iconic image of the Vall Fosca.

Today, visitors to the Hotel Arturo can follow these paths to enjoy nature, culture and the landscape in a unique way.

The preservation of these paths is essential to keep alive the memory of transhumance and traditional livestock farming. In addition to being a source of income, these paths were communication routes between towns and markets, facilitating the exchange of local products. Hotel Arturo offers information and maps of these routes so that guests can follow in the footsteps of the livestock farmers and get to know the environment in an immersive way.

Walking along these paths is not only a physical experience, but also a journey through time.
