Alta Langa, not only vineyards

Cycling through the Alta Langa hills on an e-bike is like embarking on a journey in a world suspended between sky and earth. As you climb slopes that reach nearly 800 metres in altitude, the landscape transforms before your eyes: vineyards give way to hazelnut groves, lush forests and undulating wheat fields. The fresh, pure air caresses your face, carrying with it the scents of unspoilt nature. The silence is broken only by the gentle hum of pedal assistance and birdsong. Each bend reveals a new breathtaking view, each perched village tells stories of an ancient past and a present that jealously guards centuries-old traditions.
