Going down the hill between wines and truffles

29 Jul, 2021 | Return|


DESCRIPTION:

Going downhill among wines and truffles is a more unique than rare opportunity! Thanks to this activity it is possible to follow an itinerary through some of the most suggestive villages around San Damiano. This route is divided into stages and can be done on foot or by bike. The project aims to promote, disseminate and make known the territory with all its characteristics.


CURIOSITY:

Thanks to this activity, through continuous maintenance and conservation over time, the network of paths, routes and roads that have been decommissioned or abandoned over time are kept alive, as peasant life and the activities associated with it have been lost over time .

GUIDE SERVICE:  

The route can be covered alone or accompanied by the authorized guides of the various municipalities.

DEPARTURE LOCATION: Piazza Libertà in San Damiano.

PLACE OF ARRIVAL: San Damiano d'Asti.
