Explore the Troncea Valley by E-bike: Nature, History, and Alpine Flavours:
Looking for an unforgettable experience that combines unspoiled landscapes, authentic flavours, and an immersion in the area's fascinating local history? Our guided tour through the heart of the Val Troncea Natural Park is the perfect adventure for you. Leave the daily grind behind and get ready to breathe in the pure air of the Piedmont Alps, exploring the area in complete freedom and without stress.
In the saddle, carefree
You will experience the valley on a modern, front-suspension e-bike. Thanks to the front suspension, which absorbs the unevenness of the terrain, and the assistance of the electric motor, you will be able to tackle the dirt mountain trails in maximum comfort and complete safety. The e-bike will give you the boost you need to conquer the climbs with ease, allowing you to focus entirely on the beauty of the larch forests, the charm of the pastures, and the majestic surrounding peaks. It's an accessible and rewarding activity that turns the effort of climbing into pure enjoyment.
Tradition and Flavour at Alpe Meis
Our itinerary will take you on a journey to discover rural life at the picturesque Bergeria dell'Alpe Meis. Here, we will make a stop dedicated to pastoral traditions and culinary delights. You will have the exclusive opportunity to meet local producers, learn how alpine cheeses are made, and take advantage of a break to purchase locally produced delicacies, taking home the authentic aromas and flavours of the mountains.
Gourmet break at Rifugio Troncea
Since the crisp high-altitude air works up an appetite, we have arranged a refreshing lunch for you at the picturesque Rifugio Troncea. You will be welcomed with the warm and genuine hospitality typical of mountain hut keepers, and you will be able to savour authentic dishes from the Piedmontese and Occitan culinary traditions. This is the perfect convivial moment to recharge your batteries, have a chat, and enjoy the breathtaking views from the terrace.
The allure of industrial archaeology
However, the Troncea Valley also harbours a surprising past. During the excursion, we will take you on a fascinating journey through time as we explore the industrial archaeology site of the Beth Mines. You will hear the epic and arduous storey of the miners who, at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, mined copper in these valleys under extreme conditions. As you walk among the remains of the structures and the ruins of the old ore-roasting furnaces, our guide will bring to life a fascinating and little-known piece of history nestled in the mountains.
