About this activity

Your tour will begin in front of the house of Michele, your tour guide. Michele will introduce you to the history of Valdorcia, where in the year 1400 AC. Gino di Tacco, the sanguinary robber, infiltrated this area and no food could be supplied to the kitchen of the ploughmen. The Lord of the land asked the brave knights of the region to get the food back and save the townspeople. During this tour you will act as one of the brave knights who contributed to feeding the village, and tour by bike through the Valdorcia territories, crossing secret paths to escape from Ghino's vigilance. After riding a complete course of 28 Km with difference of altitude, you will return to Michele's house and learn how to cook a typical ancient recipe from the region. Finally, you will sit for a feast, raising merry wine glasses, as a special guest in Michele‘s home to celebrate your victory.
