Piemonte Biking, Italy ~ Butterfield and Robinson · Biking and Walking Since 1966

Activity Level: M
Start / Finish: Turin / Turin

Truffle Hunting in Modest Italy

Even after all these years, Piemonte still feels like our little secret. Good thing, too, because if word got out, we’d hate to have to share it. Out here, we’re virtually alone as we pedal small roads through the most prestigious vineyards in Italy. Charming inns act like mile markers along spectacular bike routes through rolling hills of vines, hazelnut groves and secluded villages. And as the home of Barolo, Barbaresco, great pasta (which we’ll learn to make with an expert chef) and the Slow Food movement, it tastes as good as it looks. We’ll even treat you to an unforgettable afternoon with a real trifulao in search of the prized white truffle of Alba. Just keep it classified, okay?
